JAGM'S KIWI MOD

Welcome! This is a mod I made as a moving present for a friend who went to live in New Zealand. I decided to polish it up and release it to the public. It is inspired by the Cute Kiwi Birds mod by Lordloss_ which hasn't been updated since 1.16. All code and assets are original.
FEATURES
- Kiwi birds spawn in most forest biomes.
- They will occasionally dig for items, including seeds, berries, and sometimes nuggets of iron and gold, according to a loot table that can be configured using a data pack.
- They can be bred with seeds, and they lay eggs which work the same way as chicken eggs.
- If you slay a kiwi bird (you monster) they will drop kiwifruit which can be eaten or crafted into delicious pavlova.
- There is a small chance that a laser kiwi will spawn instead of a normal one. Watch out.
- Just like real life, kiwi birds are vulnerable to invasive predators. Don't let your pet cats get too close!
