A sheep is a passive mob that is sheared for wool.
Spawning
Sheep spawn on grass in light above 8 in every Overworld biome, in packs of up to 4.
A sheep spawns with a random fleece colour:
| Fleece | Chance |
|---|---|
| White | 81.836% |
| Black | 5% |
| Gray | 5% |
| Light gray | 5% |
| Brown | 3% |
| Pink | 0.164% |
Drops
An unsheared sheep drops 1 wool of its fleece colour when it dies. A sheared sheep drops nothing.
Using shears on an unsheared sheep drops 2–4 wool of its colour and leaves it sheared. Each shearing costs the shears 1 durability.
Behaviour
A sheep attacks nothing, and does not flee when hurt.
It walks at 3.0 blocks per second, 70% of a player's walking speed.
A sheared sheep never regrows its fleece.
Using a dye on an unsheared sheep turns its fleece that colour, and uses one dye. Bone meal turns it white. A sheared sheep cannot be dyed.
Wild wolves attack sheep.
It wanders, choosing grass and then brighter spaces.
