Where Llamas Live

Llamas thrive in the warm, yellow-grassed savannas alongside acacias, horses, and donkeys. These biomes are ideal for encountering these creatures.

In the rarer Windswept Hills and Forest biomes, llamas often graze in small herds, typically ranging from 4 to 6. These groups are perfect for forming caravans, a topic we'll explore later.

Additionally, llamas always accompany wandering traders, making them a reliable source to find these animals.

Appearance and Features

Llamas come in four primary colors: white, gray, brown, and beige. As neutral mobs, they won't attack unless provoked, but they'll defend themselves if needed. A notable trait is their ability to spit at enemies, such as zombies, as a form of defense.

Ways to Use Llamas

Llamas serve as excellent cargo carriers. By attaching a chest, you can store essential resources, making them invaluable for exploration. Moreover, forming a caravan of llamas significantly increases your transport capacity.

Their decorative potential is also noteworthy. With dozens of carpet colors available, you can personalize your caravan, adding a splash of style to your journey. Additionally, llamas can act as a deterrent to enemy mobs, buying you time with their spitting defense.

How to Tame a Llama

Taming a llama is the first step to making it your adventure partner. Unlike horses or donkeys, llamas don't need a saddle but can't be directly controlled. Here's how to tame one:

Step 1: Finding

Venture into the savanna or mountainous biomes where llamas often appear in groups, facilitating the taming of multiple at once.

Step 2: Mounting

Approach a llama and right-click or press the corresponding action button to mount it. The llama will attempt to buck you off several times, so persist until hearts appear, indicating successful taming.

Step 3: Using a Lead

While llamas can't be ridden, they can be led with a leash. Attach a lead to one llama, and others nearby will follow, forming a caravan. This feature turns them into a mobile inventory.

How to Attach a Chest to a Llama

Attaching a chest is straightforward. Simply press the action button on the llama with the chest in hand. The chest's inventory size will be random, up to 15 slots, and cannot be removed afterward, so plan carefully. To access the chest, hold Shift and press the action button.

Creating a caravan with multiple llamas is equally simple. Attach a lead to one tamed llama, and others within 10 blocks will follow, with a maximum caravan size of 10 mobs.
