Better Mob Drop

Name: Better Mob Drop
Author: whwdzg

Better Mob Drop changes which items mobs leave behind, so goats drop horns and sheep and other creatures drop items that fit their behavior.

What it does

The mod is a server-side change to mob loot tables: once it runs, creatures drop items chosen to be more reasonable for each kind of mob. It is shipped for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack for servers. The server needs it, while players may add it or leave it out. The license is the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the code is open source.

Key features

Goat horn drops
Goats drop horns, giving the horn item a way to enter survival play.
Food from livestock
Mutton and other farm animals leave food items that suit their role on the server.
Data pack option
The same drop changes ship as a data pack, so servers can use them without a mod loader.
