Hedgehog Buddy

Adds a tameable hedgehog that curls into a spiky ball when it's scared, brings you forest snacks and hunts silverfish.
Hedgehogs live in forests. Tame one with sweet berries and it becomes your little companion.

Description

A tiny, spiky friend for your forest adventures.

Hedgehog Buddy adds the hedgehog: a small, shy animal that lives in forests. Earn its trust and it becomes a loyal little companion.

🌲 In the wild

  • Hedgehogs live in forests (forest, flower forest, birch forest and more), alone or in pairs.
  • They're shy: if you sprint at one, or a monster gets close, it curls into a spiky ball.
  • Walk up slowly with sweet berries and it will follow you.

🦔 Taming

  • Feed it sweet berries (each berry has a 1 in 3 chance to tame it).
  • Right-click your hedgehog to make it sit or follow.
  • Feed it sweet berries to heal it.

🍓 Forest snacks

Every few minutes your hedgehog trots up to you and drops a snack: sweet berries, mushrooms, an apple or sometimes glow berries.

🛡️ Spiky ball defence

When anything hits it, the hedgehog curls into a ball for a few seconds:

  • it takes 80% less damage,
  • whoever hits it in melee gets pricked (like Thorns).

🐛 Bug hunter

Tamed hedgehogs hunt silverfish, endermites and cave spiders. Take one into a stronghold!

Compatibility

  • Minecraft 26.3: Fabric (with Fabric API), NeoForge and Forge
  • Install it on the client and the server (it adds a new mob).
  • Feel free to use it in modpacks!

Made by KandWMods. Small, spiky and full of love. 🦔
