Critter Barriers
by JTK222
Critter Barriers adds rope chain curtains that stop small critters while letting players and larger mobs pass through.
What it does
Rope chain curtains are placed as blocks that small critters cannot move through. Players and larger mobs walk past them without obstruction, so the curtains can separate animal pens or rooms by mob size. Mob behavior is data driven, which lets other mods add support for their own mobs and set which ones can get through.
Critter Barriers requires Just Utilities. The server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge, with builds covering 1.21 and 1.21.1, and 21.1.4 for 1.21.1 is the latest file on both loaders. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

What the author says
This mod adds curtains made out of Rope and Chain, allowing players and other large mobs to pass, while smaller mobs are to weak to get trough them. The mobs are data driven so you can add support for other mods and fully customize which mobs should be able to go trough and which not.
