i was making a sheep farm. all my sheeps are standing on one block: a hopper. when there are tiny sheeps and a fire charge was placed only the tiny sheeps did get on fire.
i tested this out on other mobs that you can bread. and only rabbits did both get on fire. i only tested on friendly creatures.
sorry for bad english... i am dutch
It looks like only one sheep is hit at a time. What else would you expect?
