Axolotl Bucket Fix
by coldlavalamp
Axolotl Bucket Fix changes how axolotl buckets look in the inventory so the texture shows the axolotl type inside, not a generic pink one.
What it does
Vanilla buckets holding axolotls all display the same pink texture, whatever type is inside. This Fabric mod swaps in textures that match each baby form, so a bucket reveals its contents. It is a client-side mod, so only the player's game needs it and servers can run without it. Fabric API is required. Builds cover 1.21 – 26.2, and the mod is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, so it is not open source.
Key features
Type-accurate bucket textures
Each axolotl bucket shows the texture of the axolotl type it holds, not the default pink one.
Baby form textures
Textures for baby axolotl forms make it clear which variant sits inside the bucket.
Works with variant packs
The textures are compatible with More Axolotl Variants, so the extra variants it adds are also displayed correctly.

What the author says
In vanilla 1.17+, all buckets with axolotls look like they have the pink axolotl in them regardless of which type is actually inside. This client-side Fabric mod fixes this so that the item texture shows you what's actually inside it. It also adds textures for the baby forms, so you know exactly what's in each…
