Horse breeding: Foal looks just like an adult horse

Confirmed

confirmed in 14w29a

14w29b.

I can confirm. Horse foals look identical to adults. You can tell that a horse is a foal if you cannot ride it at all.

In 14w29b.

Probably just a rendering problem. Just feed the 'foal' enough until you think it has grown up and you'll be able to ride/tame it as usual. Easiest way to verify this is in creative and feeding the 'foal' dozens of golden apples. In survival you'll just have to do it by trial and error. (14w30c)

Happenin' in 14w32b.

confirmed for 14w32b

/summon EntityHorse ~ ~ ~ {Age:X}

If {X >=-46500} Nothing happens [But it wont be baby, and it should]

If {X <-46500} Horse will be damaged by 1 health (Half health) by each tics greater than 46500 (example 46504 will be damaged by 4 health points)

If {X <48000} Horse will still take damage and It will go down (Y axis) by 1 block by each tics greater than 48000 (example 48002 will took him to ~-2 blocks and it will be damaged by 1502 health points)

In 14w33a.

In 14w34b.

In 14w34c,14w34d and 1.8-pre1

Please stop commenting about how you demand that this bug to be fixed. I asked the developers on IRC to take a look at this bug during the 14w34 snapshots, but they are already in the pre-release phase and are trying only to fix crashes and game-breaking bugs. I suspect this will get fixed after 1.8 is released, perhaps in 1.8.1.

Affects 1-8-pre3

Confirmed For Pre release 2

Affects version 1.8

For me foals don't spawn and the horses not being tamable can occur naturally (not just with foals or manually spawned horses)

Confirmed for 1.8 OFFICIAL RELEASE!

This actually didn't get fixed at all.
1.8.1-pre3, any foals will instantly become fully grown visually if you feed them just 1 piece of food. They will still be unridable until you feed them enough to become full horses.

@unknown: It a slight exaggeration to say it didn't get fixed at all - the smallest foals did get fixed. None of the intermediate sizes work as you mentioned - teenage foals still look like adult horses. Before 1.8 they had a total of 8 stages/sizes IIRC.

Mods: please reopen and mark 1.8.1-pre3 as affected.

I said that because a bandaid was placed on the issue and called fixed instead of solving the root of the problem.

This bug was fixed only for the smallest foals. The horse however, now grows (visually only) instantly to an adult after being fed just one piece of food. This ticket should be reopened.

It was, bub.

Present in 1.8.1-pre4

Present in 1.8.1-pre5

Affects Minecraft 1.8.1

Affects 1.8.2-pre5

Affects 1.8.2-pre6

It seems to be fixed for me in 1.8.2-pre6 AND in 1.8.1.

The description of this ticket is not accurate. It was partly fixed in the past but the other half is still there.

Please read the above comments.

Can confirm this still exists in 1.8.2-pre6.

Affects 1.8.3.

Perhaps a possible but temporary solution for now: If experiencing this bug, try to close the world, then reopen it.Then it should be expected that the "Adult" foal, will be restored to its ordinary size and may then be tamed (if fed to grow into an adult, of course)

Affects 1.8.7

Affects 15w31a

Affects 14w42a

Affects 15w43a

In 16w07a (and since at least 15w47c), takes multiple feedings to make a foal grow, and when it's grown, it is tamable. Fixed.

There's still strange behavior with horses in 16w07b. Find a fully grown horse, tame it, and then feed it a golden apple. You will teleport a meter or so, and the horse will not emit any hearts. The teleport is similar to the buggy mechanic that happened if you tried to mount a horse that looked fully grown, but in fact was till a foal.

its still happening for me?

Not happening to me in 16w21b.
