Type:Passive
Drops:Raw mutton, wool (depending on the color of sheep), Mustache (if spawned with it)
Identifier:sheep

The SheepHead sheep is a passive and common mob that is found in the world of mine blocks aimlessly.

Spawning

Sheep spawn on Grass grass blocks in the Overworld. They can spawn with wool of a variety of colors, most commonly white, however also black, gray, light gray, brown and most rarely, pink.

They can also be spawned from a spawn egg in creative.

Commands

A sheep can be spawned in another way besides its respective spawn egg, with the command /summon sheep you can spawn it.

In addition to that you can add data tags to customize the sheep. examples:

  • /summon sheep 1 ~ ~ {name:"Diamond Woolly", defaultDrops:0, drops:[{item:{id:"diamond"}, color:"lightblue"}]}
  • /summon sheep 1 ~ ~ {name:"Mystical Wool", health:30, drops:[{item:{id:"diamond_sword", name:"Magic Blade", enchantments:["sharpness4", "smite4", "baneOfArthropods3", "knockback3", "fireAspect", "looting3"], damage:-3}}]}

Drops

When killed, they drop 1-2 Raw mutton raw mutton or 1-2 Cooked mutton cooked mutton (if it dies while on fire). It also drops wool if it still has its coat.

When sheared with Shears shears, the sheep drops 1-4 Wool wool. This is usually gives more wool than killing the sheep, and also has the advantage of the sheep being able to regrow it later to be sheared again.

A sheep can spawn with a Mustache mustache, this makes the sheep drop the mustache once sheared.

Behavior

Like all passive mobs, if hit, the sheep will attempt to escape from Player_head the player for a short period of time.

When a sheep loses its wool (primarily by means of shears), it will eventually eat a grass block (turning it into dirt) in order to regrow its coat. This allows it to be sheared again.

Dyeing

A sheep can be dyed any color by using dyes on a sheep. When sheared, the sheep will drop wool with the color it was dyed with. If two dyes sheep are bred, the offspring will be a combination of the colors, for example a red and yellow sheep make a orange sheep.
