About this project

What does Fauna Garden add?

🌾 Fauna Garden

Plant a seed, wait, and a baby animal grows out of the ground.

Forge, NeoForge and Fabric Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 26.1.2, 26.2, 26.3 Client and Server MIT License


✨ Overview

Fauna Garden adds crops that slowly grow baby animals. Plant the seed of an animal on grass, wait for it to ripen, and a baby animal appears. Seeds exist for any mob with a spawn egg, and there are special variants for water, the Nether and lava.

A port of Animal Crops by KnightMiner, released under the MIT license. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the original author.

🎯 Features

🌱 Animal Seeds

One seed type for every animal. The growing crop shows the animal and changes as it ripens.

🌊 Anemonemals

The underwater variant: plant them in water to grow aquatic animals.

🔥 Animal Shrooms and Magnemones

Nether soil grows animal shrooms, and magnemones grow under lava, so even Nether mobs can be farmed.

🌼 Animal Pollen

Use pollen on an animal to turn it into the matching seeds. Grass can rarely drop pollen, so you can start collecting without any command.

🧪 Animal Fertilizer

A bone meal style item made for these crops: it advances the growth by 1 to 3 stages. Craft it with bone meal and rotten flesh (makes 2).

🎨 Simple Fauna Garden Resource Pack

An optional built-in resource pack with simpler crop models. Enable it from the resource pack screen.

⚙️ Configurable

Choose which animals have seeds through entity tags, what pollen does to the animal, and whether grass, sea grass and nether sprouts drop seeds or spores. Forge and NeoForge use a server config file; Fabric uses config/fauna_garden.json.

🌐 Languages

English and Spanish (Spain, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Venezuela).
