Craftable Villager Eggs
Overview
Craftable Villager Eggs is a lightweight Minecraft datapack that allows you to craft Villager Spawn Eggs in survival mode. Perfect for players who want easier access to villagers without transporting them across long distances.
The recipe uses:
1 Rotten Flesh
1 Egg
1 Leather Helmet
1 Paper

This balances accessibility with progression — making villagers renewable, but not too cheap.
📥 Installation
Download the datapack.
Place the .zip file into your world’s datapacks folder.
Reload your world with /reload.
That’s it — you can now craft villager spawn eggs using the recipe above.
✅ Compatibility
Works in vanilla Minecraft (no mods required).
Should be compatible with most other datapacks.
Multiplayer-ready — just drop it into your server’s world folder.
🐛 Reporting Issues
If you run into problems, feel free to comment where you downloaded the pack. Include your Minecraft version and any other datapacks you’re running.
⚖️ Balance Notes
The recipe is designed to keep villager eggs valuable but craftable — if you think it’s too expensive or too cheap, you can easily adjust the recipe in the datapack files.
