Animal Pen
Tired of massive animal farms cluttering your world? Want to transport livestock without herding them for miles? Animal Pen lets you capture, store, and manage animals in a single compact block.
Why You Need This Mod
Stop building enormous fenced pastures just to keep a few cows. With Animal Pen, you can store up to 64 animals in one block, breed them on demand, and harvest resources without the lag and space of traditional farms.
Perfect for players who want efficient farming without sacrificing their build aesthetic.
What You Can Do
Capture Any Animal Use the Animal Wrangler to turn any animal into a portable item. Moving your base? Relocating your farm? Just capture your animals and take them with you.
Compact Storage Stack up to 64 animals of the same type in a single pen block. No more sprawling farms eating up chunks of your world.
Automated Breeding Feed your penned animals to breed them. The pen handles everything automatically while you focus on building and exploring.
Resource Collection Attack penned animals to collect their loot drops. It's a darker side of farming, but efficient for players who need leather, meat, or other animal products.
See Your Animals Animals are actually rendered inside the pen. You can see exactly what you've stored and how many you have at a glance.
Quick Start
Craft an Animal Wrangler using sticks and leads. Right-click any animal to capture it. Place an Animal Pen block and deposit your captured animals. Feed them to breed, or extract them when you need to release them back into the world.
The pen shows you the animal count, current health, and handles all the breeding timers automatically.
Simple Crafting
The Animal Pen requires wooden fences and stone. The Animal Wrangler needs just sticks and leads. Both recipes are intuitive and use common materials you'll have on hand.
