BTA Spawn Eggs
BTA Spawn Eggs brings spawn eggs from modern Minecraft to the b1.7.3 version of Better Than Adventure, letting players create mobs from items.
What it does
Each spawn egg creates a mob when used. The mod adds 19 spawn eggs, and most of them behave close to the matching eggs in modern Minecraft. Applying an egg to a monster spawner changes the spawner so it produces that mob. Players can pick a block entity with the middle mouse button to receive its egg in creative mode.
The mod is a backport written for BTA Babric on Minecraft b1.7.3, built on a heavily modified copy of Better Than Adventure. It needs HalpLibe and PrismaticLibe installed alongside it. Both sides must run it: the environment is client and server, so every player and the server need the mod. Source code and the issue tracker are public, and the code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, making it open source. Snapshot builds are also published.
Key features

Use cases
Mob building on a server
