Animal Genders

by CorsicanFrog

Animal Genders assigns every animal a male or female sex, so breeding needs a pair of opposite genders.

What it does

Animals that spawn in the world are given a sex when they appear, and the sex is shown on the animal itself, so players can tell the two apart. Breeding requires one male and one female of the same kind. Chickens lay eggs and cows and goats can be milked, and these products follow from the gender of the animal.

The gender system covers entities the server owner selects through a whitelist or a blacklist, so only chosen species are affected. A configurable male to female ratio controls how new animals are assigned a gender, and the setting applies to adults that generate naturally and to the newborns they produce. The mod adds male and female gender to the animal entities it supports, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge, with builds for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 and 1.21.11 as the latest file, under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Visible animal sex

    Each animal shows whether it is male or female, so the gender is recognizable without inspecting the entity.

  2. Gender-based breeding

    Breeding only works with a male and a female pair, which changes how farms are planned.

  3. Egg and milk output

    Chickens lay eggs and cows and goats can be milked, so the animals yield products as in a farm setup.

  4. Whitelist and blacklist

    A server owner can choose which entities have genders by listing them in a whitelist or a blacklist.

  5. Adjustable gender ratio

    The male to female ratio is configurable and applies to naturally generated adults and to newborns.
