How to Color-Code Livestock Using Normal Dyes

Preparing Your Dyes

Because this mod relies on normal vanilla dye items, you can use any standard dye you have gathered in your world to organize your animal enclosures.

1. Gather multiple dye varieties, such as red, blue, green, and yellow.

2. Place the dyes into your inventory hotbar so you can switch between them quickly.

Applying Colors for Organization

Color-coding can help you separate breeding pairs, track specific animals, or distinguish groups within the same pen.

1. Enter your animal pen (such as a cow or pig enclosure).

2. Select your first dye item in your hand.

3. Target the specific mob you want to assign to that group and right-click to apply the color.

4. Switch to a second dye item in your hotbar.

5. Target another mob and right-click to color it differently.

For example, you can maintain red, blue, and green cows in the same fenced area to visually categorize them at a glance without needing separate pens or nametags.
