π GlymeraBreeding π
Breed your animals by hand with a stick β or let them have babies on their own. Babies grow up into adults.
Current file: GlymeraBreeding-8.0.0.jar β requires Hytale 0.7.x (Update 7 or newer).
β What is GlymeraBreeding?
Hytale has baby animals, but they never come from their parents and never grow up. GlymeraBreeding adds the missing part: animals get babies, and every baby turns into an adult after a while. Two ways of breeding are built in, and each can be switched on or off:
- Stick breeding β hit a tamed animal with a stick, then a second tamed animal of the same kind nearby. Hearts appear, and a baby is born between them.
- Automatic breeding β wild and tamed animals standing close together sometimes get a baby by themselves, so herds grow naturally. A population limit stops a pasture from filling up endlessly.
β Animals
Farm and wild animals: Cow, Pig, Wild Pig, Sheep, Horse, Goat, Chicken, Desert Chicken, Turkey, Boar, Warthog, Camel, Bison, Mouflon, Ram, Skrill β with their native Hytale babies.
New babies made for this plugin (Hytale has no young form of these animals):
- Rabbit β a rabbit kit in the colours of its parents, hopping with the Rabbit's own animations
- Bunny β a small bunny
- Mosshorn and Plain Mosshorn β a Mosshorn calf that walks, runs, grazes and sleeps like a calf
Automatic breeding only: Feran, Kweebec and Scarak Broodmothers also raise their young.
β Features
- Two breeding modes β stick breeding and automatic breeding, each switchable in
config.json; both on by default. - Babies grow up β after about 5 real minutes (adjustable). Growing up survives restarts and unloaded chunks.
- Tamed stays tamed β babies of tamed animals are tamed, babies of wild animals are wild.
- Cooldowns β a player can breed the same kind of animal again after 5 minutes; with automatic breeding each parent waits 10 minutes.
- Population limit β no automatic baby if 6 animals of the same kind already live within 15 blocks.
- World blacklist β switch the plugin off completely in single worlds (lobbies, arenas, minigames).
- Every setting explained β each entry in
config.jsonhas its own explanation right above it.
β How to Breed with a Stick
- Tame two animals of the same kind.
- Hold a stick and hit the first animal β it becomes ready to mate for 30 seconds.
- Hit a second animal of the same kind within 10 blocks.
- Hearts appear and a baby is born between the two.
Hitting with the stick does no damage.

β Installation
- Put
GlymeraBreeding-8.0.0.jarinto themods/folder of your server (or of your singleplayer world). - Start the server. The config file is created on the first start.
Upgrading from an older version: delete GlymeraBreeding-7.x.jar and GlymeraAutoBreed-*.jar β the automatic breeding is now part of GlymeraBreeding. Your settings of both old plugins are taken over on the first start. If the old AutoBreed jar is still there, the automatic part stays off and the server log tells you to remove it.
β Compatibility
- Hytale 0.7.x (Update 7 or newer)
- Dedicated servers and singleplayer
- No client mod needed β the new baby models are sent to the players automatically
