Duck Armor

by Orbitul

Players who want ducks and geese to wear protection can equip them with Duck Armor, which adds gear for both birds on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge.

What it does

Duck Armor lets players equip armor on ducks and geese, giving the feathered animals extra protection in the field. Armor is worn by the birds themselves, so each equipped duck or goose keeps its own defense while it marches with the flock. The mod is built on Architectury, so one codebase serves Fabric, Forge and NeoForge.

Duck Armor needs Architectury API, Geckolib and Untitled Duck Mod to run, and it is listed under the World generation category with Adventure, Equipment and Mobs as secondary tags. The server and every player need the mod installed. The code is released under the MIT License and is open source, with a public source repository and issue tracker. Fabric and NeoForge builds target 1.21.1, and the Forge build targets 1.20.3.

Key features

  1. Armored ducks

    Ducks can be fitted with armor that adds protection while the birds move with the flock.

  2. Armored geese

    Geese accept the same armor, so both feathered mobs can be equipped in one system.

  3. Lightweight addon design

    The mod stays small and keeps vanilla gameplay intact, adding only the armor layer to the animals.

  4. Battle-style flock

    Equipped birds can be led into fights as a group, with the armor adding defense to each one.

Use cases

Protecting a flock

A player who keeps ducks or geese on a farm can armor them before a trip into dangerous terrain.

Adventure modpacks

Modpack builders can add the armor to a pack that already includes Untitled Duck Mod.

Who it’s for: Players who keep ducks or geese from Untitled Duck Mod, and server owners who run modpacks with those birds. The mod suits packs where animals are part of the adventure, not a separate combat system.
