Husk

Husks are an upcoming variant of zombies.

Spawning
80% of zombies spawned aboveground in Desert, Desert Hills, and Desert M biomes will be husks. If the zombie does not have a view of the sky, it will always be a normal zombie or a zombie villager. Like normal zombies, there is a 5% chance for baby husks to be spawned, and an additional 5% chance to spawn as a chicken jockey.

Behavior
Husks behave much the same as normal zombies do. However, they will not burn in sunlight. Additionally, they will apply the Hunger effect to any player it hits. This effect lasts for 7 seconds on Easy, 14 seconds on Normal, and 21 seconds on Hard difficulty. They are visually 2 pixels taller than Zombies, but have the same hitbox.

Drops
The Husk will have a chance to drop rotten flesh when killed.
