Villager Pickup Mod is a Minecraft mod that makes transporting and managing villagers incredibly easy by allowing players to pick them up and move them around like items.

Features:
- Shift + right-click a villager to convert them into a spawn egg-like item.
- The villager keeps all its data-profession, trade progress, name, and more-so nothing is lost during transport.
- You can place the villager back down wherever you want, even across biomes or dimensions.
- Fully functional on the server side; vanilla clients can still interact with it if installed on the server.
How It Works:
- Some versions use a glass sphere to encapsulate villagers.
- Picking up villagers may cost experience points based on their job level (configurable).
- Optional block where you can place picked-up villagers and their workstations for easy trading.
Limitations & Config Options:
- Baby villagers can’t be picked up by default (can be changed in config).
- Sleeping or dead villagers, or those more than 4 blocks away, can’t be picked up.
- Wandering traders and custom entities may not be compatible.
