Natural automated breeding
Animals enter the familiar vanilla breeding state without direct player feeding.
Let animals breed naturally using nearby food sources.
Full overview
Auto Breeding lets established animal farms continue producing without requiring players to manually feed every pair. The system still consumes real survival resources, preserving the cost of breeding while removing repetitive clicking.
Animals search for appropriate nearby food under configurable conditions. Limits and timing controls prevent the automation from turning a small farm into uncontrolled entity growth.
How it works
Supported animals periodically look for valid food in the configured area. When requirements are met, the food is consumed and the animals enter the normal breeding state.
Species-aware handling keeps each animal tied to the correct resource. Server owners decide the search range, intervals, limits and other controls needed to fit the local economy and performance goals.
Administration
The plugin is intentionally lightweight. Configuration centres on supported animals, food behaviour, timing, limits and range so administrators can balance convenience against entity count.
Feature breakdown
Each headline feature is expanded below so visitors can understand the real server use rather than seeing a short tag list.
