SpaceFrog's Forever Young Tadpoles
Java data pack listed for Minecraft 1.19–26.x. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
Have your cake an eat it too! You can now keep your beloved tadpoles in their baby forms while still letting them grow to be adult frogs. Confusing, but…
⬇ Download on ModrinthThis datapack is being deprecated in favor of SpaceFrog's Pet Tadpoles datapack. Like this datapack, the new datapack lets you make forever-young tadpoles but includes other features you might enjoy, check it out! Unless bugs are reported that need patching, no further updates will be made to the Forever Young Tadpoles datapack.
Keep your tadpole friends in their cute tadpole forms forever! Show a tadpole a slime ball to cause a quantum-superposition where the tadpole splits into two versions of itself – one that will grow into a frog and one that will stay young forever. The forever-young tadpoles will glow for 30 seconds so you can identify and will also be invulnerable*. While the age lock function of the golden dandelion in version 26.1 makes most of this datapack redundant, invulnerability for your pet tadpole is still a useful feature.
*Invulnerability was added to fix a bug with how Minecraft handles mobs in buckets. If you don't want this feature, you can use a version of the datapack prior to 3.0.
