How to Make a Rainbow Sheep in Minecraft

Want to add some magic to the cubic world of Minecraft? A rainbow sheep will definitely be an unusual decoration for your farm! And also a source of good mood. Imagine: among ordinary white and black sheep, there is this special one grazing, shimmering with all the colors of the rainbow. We will tell you how to create such a miracle.

In survival mode

To turn a regular sheep into a colored one, you will need an anvil, a tag, and five levels of experience. The fastest way to gain experience is to mine coal. You can easily build an anvil, as we described in detail in another article . It will be difficult with a tag, it is a rare item, but it seems to be easiest to get it by fishing. Other methods are described in this guide .

Once you have all the necessary ingredients, set up the anvil, rename the tag on it to jeb_   (with a lowercase letter!), and apply it to any sheep. The moment of transformation is mesmerizing – an ordinary sheep begins to shimmer with all the colors of the rainbow.

Important details

The rainbow effect can be applied to both adult sheep and small lambs. However, there is one nuance: when shearing, the wool will remain its normal color. The magic of the rainbow affects only the appearance of the sheep, without changing the properties of its wool. But what a pleasure to watch this iridescent miracle on your farm!

Rainbow sheep look great in a variety of settings, from fairytale castles to modern farms. They can be a living decoration for an amusement park or inspire you to display play pets.
