📋 About This Mod
# (https://modrinth.com/mod/lil-guy/version/1.2.5_26.1-26.2) !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/9srQd7ap/images/7cc7849cb3a0f5a26345ec9c2d86d589b1ee26b7.png) Named baby animals will never grow up! Similar to (https://minecraft.wiki/w/Golden_Dandelion), they will stay babies forever. "Naming" a named entity with an Unnamed NameTag will Unname the entity; this can be used to allow a baby mob to grow (though, they're vulnerable to despawning). <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/eVYSsutFKJE" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe> --- This mod was inspired by Scotty! A sever I played on had a feature for keeping animals as babies but it did not work. Scotty is fine but I wanted a reliable way to have this functionality. !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/9srQd7ap/images/67b8881e1925eb200ab9e4810299aa33582a0fe4.png) --- Textures in screenshots and video are from (https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/bare-bones) by (https://modrinth.com/user/RobotPants).
