Mineable Spawners
by bushman59
Mineable Spawners lets players break spawners with a silk touch netherite pickaxe, so a spawner can be taken as an item instead of staying in the world.
What it does
Spawners and trial spawners can only be mined with a silk touch netherite pickaxe, delivered by a data pack. Breaking one with any other tool leaves it in place. Mining a spawner without silk touch still yields experience, and mining speed for trial spawners is unchanged. Spawners drop spawn eggs when mined. Server owners install the mod on the server; players need nothing extra, since the environment is server required and client optional. Files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, covering game versions 1.21.6 – 26.3, under All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Silk touch requirement
Spawners and trial spawners yield their block only when broken with a silk touch netherite pickaxe.
Experience without silk touch
Breaking a spawner with another tool still gives experience, so mining is not blocked outright.
Spawn eggs on mining
A mined spawner drops spawn eggs and pairs with spawn egg and spawner data packs that make them craftable.

What the author says
This data pack makes spawners and trial spawners obtainable only with a silk touch netherite pickaxe. Mining a spawner without silk touch will still yield xp.
