Attempt to dye the sheep.

Also try spawn any mob 6 blocks on front of you with a spawn egg.

This issue was present in 1.18.2, but no longer occurs in versions above or equal to 22w11a. With that being said, this issue has been fixed in 22w11a. To reinforce my claims, I've attached two screenshots demonstrating the difference in behavior between versions.
