Kakapos
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.



Now updated to 1.20! No more GeckoLib!
This small mod adds the kakapo parrot to the jungles! Try to find and tame this unique bird in your world.
You can tame it by using either apples or carrots. It can:
- Follow you around
- Sit when ordered
- Make cute custom sounds
- Dance when a jukebox is nearby
That's one helpful pet!

I made this mod a few months ago as an introduction to Forge and I wanted to share it. It uses GeckoLib for the animations but hopefully i'll find time to make it a standalone mod someday.
