# 🐑 - Autonomous Wild Animal Breeding > **"Nature does not wait for player intervention to blossom."** Animals in the wild should not depend solely on players for survival and growth. **Natural Reproduction** allows all passive mobs in Minecraft to autonomously breed and multiply when environmental conditions are ideal, while rewarding thoughtful pasture management and multi-generational genetics investment. Part of the **Delayed Gratification Collection** — mods that reward long-term planning, multi-generational investment, and strategic animal husbandry. --- ## ✨ Key Features ### 🐾 Universal 25+ Animal Species Support Autonomous wild breeding and environmental habitat block triggers across cattle, equines, canines, felines, amphibians, aquatic mobs, nether fauna, and wild animals. ### 📏 Scale-Based Item Drop Yield Larger animals (up to 1.30x scale) yield bonus item drops on death/harvest, while smaller animals yield reduced drops. ### 🛑 Cramped Space Penalty vs. Spacious Pasture Recovery Breeding in cramped 4x4 factory farm pens stunts offspring scale down to 0.25x (yielding minimal drops). Moving animals to open pastures (+30% recovery per generation) restores their genetic size potential! ### 🧬 Data-Driven Genetics Integration Powered by `DasikAnimalGeneticsAPI` and `EntityGeneticsRegistry` modifying `minecraft:scale`. ### 💻 In-Game Command Suite Comprehensive `/naturalreproduction` Brigadier command suite with tab completion supporting `help`, `status`, `get`, `set`, `reset`, and `reload`. --- ## ⚙️ Configuration (Native Game Rules) > [!WARNING] > **Important: Config vs. In-Game GameRules** > The global configuration file only defines **default values for new worlds** at creation time. > If you have **already created/opened a world**, changing the config file will have no effect. You must change the settings in-game using the **Edit Game Rules** UI screen or the `/gamerule` command. No messy config files. Everything lives in the **Edit Game Rules** screen, YACL v3 config GUI, or via standard commands: - `natural-reproduction:enabled`: Master toggle for autonomous wild animal reproduction. (Default: true) - `natural-reproduction:rate`: Base probability percentage per tick interval for animal breeding. (Default: 5) - `natural-reproduction:density_cap`: Maximum number of same-species animals allowed within spatial check radius. (Default: 8) - `natural-reproduction:scale_drops`: Enables scale-based bonus drops on animal harvest/death. (Default: true) - `natural-reproduction:cramped_space_penalty`: Enables growth stunting in high-density factory pens. (Default: true) --- ## 📋 Installation & Requirements - **Fabric Loader** >= 0.19.1 - **Minecraft** 26.2+ - **Fabric API** - **DasikLibrary** >= 1.8.15 --- ## ☕ Support If you enjoy the **Delayed Gratification Collection**, consider supporting the next update!
