Trader Llama Spawn Egg
Trader Llama Spawn Egg instantly spawns a Trader Llama, the pack animal that escorts every Wandering Trader and spits at hostile mobs to defend nearby players.
Description
A Trader Llama behaves like a standard llama with one key difference: it spits at any hostile mob that attacks it, a nearby player, or its Wandering Trader, making the Trader Llama Spawn Egg useful for testing mob-defense setups and caravan mechanics. Trader Llamas can be leashed and linked into a caravan of up to ten animals, and their health ranges from 15 to 30 hearts like ordinary llamas. Builders and map-makers use the Trader Llama Spawn Egg to populate villages, roads, and adventure maps with roaming merchants and their guardian llamas without waiting for a natural Wandering Trader to appear.

Point the crosshair at the ground or any solid surface where you want the Trader Llama to appear.

Right-click to spawn
