Horse

Horses are a planned 1.6 mob hinted by Jeb when Minecraft hit 10,000,000 sales. In a later tweet, Jeb said DrZhark, creator of the Mo' Creatures mod is assisting with the horse's creation, which is most noted by Jeb's Instagram picture, that shows that the horse model is the same from Mo' Creatures. . DrZhark was asked if the horses from the mod will be the same as the ones in 1.6. He responded "What do you think?" You will be able to put armor on them and tie them to fence posts. The two screenshots released by Jeb suggests there will be different breeds of horses, similar to the different breeds of cats, though this has not been confirmed yet. Horses will be able to jump. Baby horses' growth can be accelerated via the use of apples, wheat, sugar, hay bales, and are completely passive when hit, unlike other mobs. Riding a horse into water will cause you to dismount. The horses health bar replaces your hunger bar when riding,

To tame, right click on the horse with an empty hand. You will mount it, then be thrown off. Repeat until the horse no longer throws you off. the amount of times this is necessary varies from horse to horse. It appears to be sped up by feeding the horse any of the approved foods (apples, wheat, sugar, hay bales), but only whilst on the horse, before it throws you off. Then throw a saddle on it and you are ready to ride. Left shift (or assigned key for sneak) will dismount you.

A horse will jump higher if you hold the space bar.

If you ride a horse the experience bar will be replaced for a jump indicator bar.

Your hearts will change color and texture if you ride them

The houses have 3 different types of armor: Iron, Gold and Diamond.

By right clicking on a hours you can attempt to make it a * friend* once done you can place a "Horse Saddle" on it.

There are 10 different types of horses and each can be a big on or a small one.
