Mods/The Aether/Moa

Moas are passive mobs that spawn naturally on any difficulty setting in the Aether. They are large flying birds, and occur in three colors: blue, white and black. They occasionally drop an egg, which can be picked up by the player. The player can hatch this egg by putting it in an incubator which can be powered by ambrosia torches. When hatched, a baby moa will appear which can be fed aechor petals, to ultimately grow it in to an adult, tamed moa. A blue moa requires 3 aechor petals to grow, a white moa 4, and a black moa 8. Between feeding, a baby moa needs to digest its food. Tamed moas can be ridden, much like a flying pig. However unlike a flying pig, a moa can also perform multiple mid-air jumps: a blue moa can perform 3 mid-air jumps, a white moa 4, and a black moa 8.
