Pick Up and Transport a Villager Safely

How to Carry a Villager

Villagers are valuable for trading, but moving them traditionally requires leads or boats. With this mod, you can carry them by hand.

Steps:

1. Approach a villager with an empty hand (no items held)

2. Interact with the villager as you normally would

3. The villager will appear in your hand as a 3D model

4. Walk to your desired location

5. Right-click (or your place block key) to set them down

Protecting Villager Data

When you pick up a villager, all their information is preserved:

  • Custom names you've given them
  • Their profession and trade offers
  • Their experience level
  • Any enchanted books or special trades they hold

This means you can safely relocate villagers to a trading hall or new base without losing their trades or identity. The mod prevents them from taking damage or suffocating while carried, so there's no risk during transport.
