🐷 Information
This mod adds the once removed Pigmen (not the zombie version, the one you could've traded with!) back into Minecraft.

Here's how they work, if you feed a pig a Golden Apple, they will turn into a Pigman. You right click them with a Brewing Stand, Loom or Smithing Table to give them the following professions, Chemist, Shepherd or Blacksmith!
⚔️ Not your cup of tea?
If you give them a sword, they will attack monsters for you! You can even hand them some iron armor for some added protection. (iron armor only)

🚪 Details
Each profession will use different types of currency, for example, the Chemist likes Gold while the Shepherd likes Iron. If you want a look on what the trades are on these professions, click the spoiler!
