Steps to Reproduce:
Find or spawn a cat, ocelot or wolf
Use the corresponding spawn egg on it to spawn a baby
Observed Results:
Baby cats and wolves spawned through untamed adults come in a broken tamed state that can not be made to sit and does not teleport to the player. Their collars are white by default, but can be dyed. Baby ocelots come in a normal trusting state.
Expected Results:
Babies spawned through untamed adults are also untamed, behaving as they normally would through other spawning methods.
Notes:
Can confirm. I noticed a couple days ago that wolf pups from spawn eggs couldn’t be tamed, and I was only able to get a properly tamed one by breeding two tamed adults.
Looking back, you’re right, they may have been being spawned tamed but with no owner?
