Have you ever felt like something was wrong with your factory farming experience on Minecraft? You had the cramming, the health code violations, and possibly even slaughter by lava, but something was missing...
Now introducing growth hormone! Rob your farm animals of their childhoods and turn them into adults fit for consumption instantly! Craftable with an egg, a glass bottle, an iron nugget, and some bonemeal.
To use: Simply hit a baby mob with the growth hormone in your hand.
This mod is configurable. Navigate to the config folder, then the growth_hormone_settings.json file to change the default settings. By default, the growth hormone works for all mobs with baby and adult forms. You can disable this functionality for Piglins, all Zombie variants, and Villagers.
