Explosive Breeding
Explosive Breeding makes animals explode when they are bred, a Fabric mod for players who keep animal farms in caves.
What it does
When two animals are bred, the pair detonates instead of producing a baby. The mod targets players who breed animals underground, where a blast can threaten a farm built inside a cave. Installing it on a server is enough, since players join without anything extra. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with files for Fabric covering 1.19.3 – 1.21.
Key features
Exploding breeding
Breeding an animal pair triggers an explosion in place of a newborn animal.
Cave-focused play
The explosions suit animal farms built underground, where players must survive the blast.
Server-side install
Only the server runs the mod, so players join without installing it.

How it compares
CobbleBoom is also server-side only and open source under the MIT License, with Fabric, Forge and NeoForge files for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1. Explosive Chickens needs both client and server and covers only 1.19, so it suits a different setup.
