Scyap's Wooly Cow Mod
by Matthewscyap
Scyap's Wooly Cow Mod adds Wooly Cows to Minecraft Earth, a Fabric mod for 1.21.1 that brings a woolly variant of the cow into the world.
What it does
Wooly Cows spawn naturally on snowy plains, so a player exploring cold biomes will find them without any setup. The cows behave like regular cows: shearing one yields brown wool blocks instead of the usual leather or beef drops, and some of them play a shaking animation now and then.
The mod works on Fabric for 1.21.1 and runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source. The first build was published on 2025-12-24 and the latest file, 1.0.0-1.21.1, followed on 2026-01-21. The author notes that the cow models will be updated in later versions.
Key features
Wooly Cow spawns
Wooly Cows generate naturally across snowy plains biomes, adding a new mob to the cold regions of a world.
Brown wool from shearing
Shearing a Wooly Cow gives brown wool blocks, in place of the drops a regular cow would give.
Shaking animation
Some Wooly Cows play a shaking animation, which gives them a distinct look from ordinary cows.
Minecraft Earth theme
The additions follow the Minecraft Earth setting, with extra content built around the Wooly Cow.

Use cases
Cold-biome exploration
Players crossing snowy plains can find Wooly Cows as a new animal to encounter and shear.
Brown wool collection
Players who want brown wool blocks for building or decoration can get them from sheared Wooly Cows.
Who it’s for: Players who want a new cow variant on Fabric for 1.21.1 and server owners who want a Wooly Cow spawn on snowy plains, with both sides running the mod.
How it compares
Modern Apple Cows is a Fabric, Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.20.1 – 26.3 that needs both the client and the server, and it is not open source, licensed as All rights reserved. Golden Apple Cow is a Fabric mod for 1.21.11 that runs on the client and the server under the MIT License and is open source, so it targets a later version than this mod.
