A comprehensive animal breeding and taming mod that lets you expand your farm with baby animals. Feed animals to breed them, watch babies grow into adults, and tame your favorite creatures.
HyTame brings a complete animal breeding and taming system to Hytale, allowing you to build thriving farms with generations of animals.
Key Features
Breeding System
Feed two animals of the same type their favorite food to put them in love mode. When two animals in love are close enough, they will breed and produce a baby animal.
Baby Growth
Baby animals spawn from breeding and naturally grow into adults over time. Wild baby animals found in the world also mature as time passes.
Animal Taming
The latest version merges with the Tameable Animals mod. Now you must tame animals before breeding them. Feed taming food to wild animals to domesticate them.
Entity Persistence
Tamed animals are saved and survive server restarts. If a tamed animal despawns, it will respawn at its last position when a player approaches within 64 blocks.
