Baby Creepers
by DAMIANOO9
Baby Creepers makes some creepers spawn as smaller babies, which grow faster than usual.
What it does
About one creeper in ten spawns as a baby. Baby creepers are smaller and mature faster than standard ones. The effect is set by a datapack, so it changes how creepers spawn in a world without adding new blocks or items. Only the server must run it; players may join without installing anything. Builds cover 1.21 – 26.2 for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the datapack form is also offered, released under the MIT License and not open source.

What the author says
Makes it so 10% of creepers spawn as babies, making them smaller and faster. ### Note Don't expect many updates as there's not much you can add to a datapack like this. I will try my best to update it to newer versions.
