Goat Overview

Goat at the Mountain

Goat at the Mountain.

Goats are one of the new mobs in Minecraft 1.17 (Caves and Cliffs Update Part I). 

Goats are a neutral mob find in the Mountains. Sometimes, Goats jumping to reach some places. The jump itself can be high. They can jump over fences and walls (even multiple stacked blocks). Because of this, falling damage is decreased by 5 Hearts for Goats. So Goats is pretty much immune from falling.

Goats have a variant too. It’s Screaming Goats. There is no difference in terms of appearance between a Goat and a Screaming Goat. What makes Screaming Goat different is that it rams more and makes noises (screaming). 

Another thing about Goats is that Goats won’t walk on Snow Powder. 

Minecraft Goat ramming

Goat Ramming.

Goats are also capable of ramming players and mobs nearby them. Here are the things you should know: 

  • Goats won’t ram other Goats.
  • It’s pretty rare to get rammed.
  • Mobs won’t attack back after getting rammed.

The damage from ramming itself is not very fatal. What makes it dangerous is when the Goat rams players or mobs off of the Mountain peak. 

When a Goat rams a target, the target is knocked back pretty far from the Goat. Baby Goat is also capable of ramming players and mobs.

Even though this makes Goats look hostile, when a Goat is getting hit by players, it will run away.

What Can You Get from a Goat?

Right now, Goats are the third source of Milk in Minecraft. To get Milk from a Goat, use Empty Bucket and get close to the Goat.

There is another item you can get from a Goat. This item is Goat Horn, and it’s likely to be in version 1.18 (Caves and Cliffs Part II). 

How to Breed Goats

Just like Cows, Goats eat Wheat. To breed them, bring Wheat in your hand and approach the Goats. The Goats will follow you, click each Goat, and the next thing you know, there is a baby Goat. 

There is a small chance player can get a Screaming Goat from breeding.

Aside from breeding Goats, Players can speed up baby Goat growth using Wheat. The method is the same, feed the baby with Wheat.
