Horse Spawn Egg
Horse Spawn Egg instantly summons a tamable Horse in Minecraft — a Creative-only item used to stock stables, ranches, and breeding pens without hunting plains biomes.
Description
Builders and map-makers use Horse Spawn Egg to populate stables, ranches, and adventure-map paddocks instantly, skipping the search for wild horses across plains, savanna, and meadow biomes. A horse summoned this way starts untamed, so mount it repeatedly with an empty hand until hearts appear, then add a saddle to steer it and horse armor to protect it. For breeding, feed two horses a golden apple or golden carrot to produce a foal, making Horse Spawn Egg the fastest way to start a horse farm on a fresh world.
