About this project
What does Baby Fat add?
🐠BABY FAT🐠
This mod adds a new mob - Ranchu goldfish! They come in a variety of patterns, and can be bred. Alongside this, it also adds a new decorative plant - Water Lett uce.

📋 Features!
🪣Ranchus & Variants
Ranchus spawn in river biomes. They can be bucketed, and their appearance can vary in color pattern and tail size.
- By default, almost all naturally spawned ranchus will be of the "wild" variant - a muddy-brown color with no patterns.
- Ranchus can be bred, and when bred, they can spawn in new variants.
- There are 101 different color patterns and 3 different tail sizes ( Short, Medium and Long ) that ranchus can have.
- This gives them a total of 303 different skin combinations.
🥬Water Lettuce
Water Lettuce is a new aquatic plant that spawns in water bodies in savanna biomes.
- Spread when bone-meal is used on them.
- Can be crafted into green dye.
- Used for ranchu breeding, see below.
💕Breeding
In the Latest Version of Babyfat, Ranchus have been changed to breed like other vanilla mobs, just feed 2 ranchus water lettuce and soon you'll have a beautiful bouncing baby ranchu!
Regarding older versions of Babyfat:
Ranchus cannot be fed to breed them, unlike other mobs.
- Instead, ranchus must first be bucketed in order to 'domesticate' them.
- Then a pair of ranchus must be placed in a body of water, and the following conditions must be fullfilled:
- The water must have one or more water lettuce within ten blocks of the ranchus.
- There must be less than six ranchus nearby.
- It must be sunrise.
If these conditions are maintained, the ranchus will automatically enter love-mode, and breed.

🛠️ Compatibility
