Silk Touch Spawners

by ThePatriotsCommandXS

Silk Touch Spawners lets a Silk Touch tool pick up a spawner block whole, so the spawner is collected instead of being destroyed.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.21 – 1.21.10

What it does

Breaking a spawner with a tool enchanted with Silk Touch collects the block itself, which can then be placed elsewhere. Removing and replacing spawner blocks is possible in survival, and the spawner can be moved to a new location. Spawners can also be added into the world through a datapack placed in the datapacks folder.

The mod is distributed as a datapack on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 1.21 – 1.21.10. Only the server needs it, while players may add it for the Silk Touch interaction, so players join without installing anything. Versions before 1.21 were not made, and the 1.4 build is the latest file, released on 2025-11-14. The code is not open source and is covered by All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Silk Touch spawner pickup

    A spawner is collected whole when broken with a Silk Touch tool, keeping its mob type and settings.

  2. Replaceable spawners

    Spawner blocks can be removed and replaced, which allows changing the mob a spawner produces.

  3. Datapack delivery

    The feature is installed by placing the zip file in the datapacks folder, and no mod jar is needed.

What the author says

Any silk touch tool can pick up spawners. Slide the zip file into the datapacks folder and this will allow for grabbable spawners within your game. This is the NO SPAWN EGG workaround. Fully immersve to the survival experience. Can work with Modded mob spawners as well! Silk Touch Spawners is available as a datapack…
