Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · Forge⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · Forge⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · NeoForge
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.

Better Horse Feeding makes Golden Apples apply their effects to horses when fed to a horse by a player.

Technical Information:
This mod works by using SpongePowered Mixins to inject into the Java bytecode of Minecraft. Within the AbstractHorse class (used as the base for the main Horse entity type) there is a method with a mapped name of "handleEating", which has two parameters; one for the Player feeding the horse, another for the ItemStack being fed to the horse. BHF injects into the "head" of this method, applying the effects (if any) from the food being fed to the horse. It's that simple!
