Horses are a planned 1.6 mob hinted by Jeb[1] when Minecraft hit 10,000,000 sales. DrZhark, creator of the Mo' Creatures mod assisted with the horse's creation, which is the same from Mo' Creatures.[2]
Once a horse is tamed and a horse saddle is attached, they can be controlled with standard directional controls and the mouse. Different variations of horse armor can be put onto horses. They can be tied to fence posts using a leash. There are different breeds of horses, similar to the different breeds of cats. A foal's growth can be accelerated via the use of apples, wheat, sugar, bread, hay bales. Horses are completely passive when hit.
Appearance
There are currently 5 variations of the horse mob in the game, 2 of which spawn naturally in the wild. The normal horse are all the same breed and can be 1 of 7 base colors; gray, dapple gray, dark bay, bay, flaxen chestnut, buckskin, and black. The horses also have a secondary coloring known as markings. There are 5 different markings; no markings, stockings, snowflake appaloosa, pinto, and black blanket. In total there are 35 possible horse color combinations taking into consideration all base colors and markings. There is also the donkey which can be bred with a horse to produce the mule. There are two types of undead horses: a zombie horse and a skeleton horse, but they cannot be tamed by the player, and can only be brought into the game by editing the region files.
Horses
Horses are the regular horse breed in the game, and occasional foals will spawn too. They can wear horse saddles and can wear any horse armor. Foals can be fed to grow faster, see table below.
Mules and donkeys
In Minecraft, donkeys are a variation of horses, which spawn less commonly than normal horses. Young donkeys and mules can be fed apples and sugar in the same manner as horses. They can wear a horse saddle, but not horse armor. Instead, they can wear a chest, but the inventory is not accessible (yet). Upon death a donkey or mule will drop the attached chest. As in the real world, mules can be produced by breeding a horse with a donkey, which seems to work more rarely than normal breeding of two horses or two donkeys. Mules themselves cannot breed.
Skeleton
A skeleton variation of a horse. It does not appear to be tameable. It has only one texture and cannot equip anything. It can only be spawned through third party editing programs at this time.
Undead
A zombie variation of a horse. It does not appear to be tameable. On the texture they have more of a leather pack than a chest. It can only be spawned in through third party editing programs at this time.

Taming
To tame a wild horse, approach it and right click on it with an empty hand. You will climb on top of it, and will likely be thrown off. After a few attempts, it will allow you remain on it and will give off heart animations. At this point you can dismount it by pressing the Sneak key and place a horse saddle on it.
The chance of successful taming on the first try is 0%. Every failed attempt increases this chance by 5. This means that on the second mount the player has 5% chance of success; on the third - 10% etc. Taming can be sped up by feeding the horse any of the approved foods when you are standing next to it - see column "Taming prob." in the table above.
Riding
Once you have tamed a horse and put a horse saddle on it, you can control it with standard directional controls and the mouse. Horses can be made to jump, and holding the jump key allows you to charge your jump. Horses are not affected by Jump Boost beacons. Sneaking causes you to dismount, as does going in water deeper than two blocks.
When you mount a horse, the hunger bar and oxygen bar are replaced by the horse's health in survival or adventure mode. It uses a slightly different heart texture than the player's health bar. The experience bar is replaced by the horse jump bar, which gauges how high you jump. The maximum jumping height, which is reached when the bar is fully charged as you release the spacebar, depends on the horse you ride. It seems to range from about 1.2 to 5.1 blocks high. As each horse has different statistics, it is difficult to gauge the maximum distance but testing has revealed that certain horses can jump distances of 11 blocks.
You can use any item while riding a horse, including drinking or throwing potions, activating doors or redstone devices, or using chests, crafting tables, and furnaces. You can also break and place blocks and attack.
When running forward, you will start at a slow walk and build to a speed faster than sprinting. You will automatically run up any one block high slope. You are three blocks tall while on a horse, but you can ride under 2 block tall areas, causing your head to pass through blocks. This causes suffocation damage, except when passing through non-solid blocks. You are slightly wider than one block, and are unable to walk through one block wide gaps. However, due to the horse's length, you can run over any one block gap. It also appears you can run across a two block gap at high speeds, but this does not seem to work all the time. You can also cause your horse to climb ladders by running at it similar to how players climb them.
Virtually all horses appear to be able to outrun a mine cart when both are moving at full speed. Some seem to be quite dramatically faster than a mine cart. This can be combined with speed potions and the Nether to make the horse easily the fastest practical way to travel in Minecraft (around 130 m/s Earth-equivalent in The Nether).
Horses are very slow moving backwards, and about as fast as the player when moving sideways. Therefore, turning around is quite preferable to moving backwards or sideways.
Breeding
Horses are bred by feeding them wheat while you're riding them, but they cannot breed if they're wearing armor.
The new foal takes one of the colors and one of the markings of its parents the majority of the time. On rare occasions however, an offspring may be produced with a color or pattern that matches neither of the parents'.
Once you have bred two horses you have a chance that the offspring is going to have better properties like having more health, better speed or jump strength.
Offspring healthbar always shows 26 hearts even though its real hp is lower (and never exceed 15 hearts). This glitch can be fixed by reloading the world.

'''Cooked chicken''' is a [[food]] item that can be eaten by the [[player]].
== Obtaining ==
=== Mob loot ===
When a chicken dies while on fire, it drops one cooked chicken. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 1–4 cooked chicken with Looting III.
=== Cooking ===
[[Raw chicken]] can be cooked in a [[furnace]], [[smoker]], or [[campfire]]. Each piece of cooked chicken removed from a furnace output slot gives 0.35 [[experience]] (22.4 experience per stack).
{{Smelting
|Raw Chicken
|Cooked Chicken

}}
=== Trading ===
{{IN|java}}, apprentice-level butcher [[villager]]s have a {{frac|2|3}} chance to sell 8 cooked chicken for an [[emerald]].
Butcher villagers may give cooked chicken to players with the [[Hero of the Village]] effect.{{only|java}}
{{IN|bedrock}}, apprentice-level butcher villagers have a 25% chance to sell 8 cooked chicken for an emerald as part of their trades.
== Usage ==
=== Food ===
To eat cooked chicken, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|6}} [[hunger]] and 7.2 hunger [[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]].
=== Wolves ===
Cooked chicken can be used to [[breed]] and heal tamed [[wolves]], lead them around, and make baby tamed wolves grow up faster by 10% of the remaining time.

{{for|other kinds of boats|Boat (disambiguation)}}
A '''boat''' is a drivable vehicle [[entity]] used primarily for fast transport of players and passenger mobs over bodies of water. '''Bamboo rafts''' look different, but function almost identically to other boats.
== Obtaining ==
Boats can be crafted with any Overworld planks; crimson and warped planks cannot be used to make boats.<ref>{{bug|MC-170868|||Invalid}}</ref>
Boats can be retrieved by repeatedly hitting them until they drop as an item.
[[Tool]]s and [[weapon]]s that deal more than {{Health|4}} damage will instantly destroy a boat in one hit.{{only|Java}}
=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting

|showname=0
|A2= Matching Overworld Planks
|C2= Matching Overworld Planks
|A3= Matching Overworld Planks
|B3= Matching Overworld Planks
|C3= Matching Overworld Planks
|Output= Matching Boat
|type= Transportation
|foot=1
}}
== Usage ==
Boats can be used for the transportation of [[player]]s and [[mob]]s, sold for emeralds, or [[Smelting|burnt]] as fuel.
=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting usage|match=end|Boat, Bamboo Raft}}
=== Trading ===
Master-level fisherman [[villager]]s always offer to buy a boat for an [[emerald]]. The type of boat depends on the biome outfit type of the villager; [[plains]] villagers offer to buy oak boats, [[taiga]] and [[Snowy Tundra|snowy]] villagers offer to buy spruce boats, [[savanna]] villagers offer to buy acacia boats, [[desert]] and [[jungle]] villagers offer to buy jungle boats, and [[swamp]] villagers offer to buy dark oak boats.
=== Fuel ===
A boat used as fuel in a [[furnace]] lasts 60 seconds, smelting up to 6 items.
=== Transportation ===
{{see also|Transportation|Riding}}
==== Entering ====
A player enters a boat by {{control|using}} it, if the boat is not fully occupied (boats can hold two entities). Unlike [[bed]]s, there is no message above the hotbar for attempting to enter a fully occupied boat.<ref>{{bug|MC-161251}} - resolved as “Works as Intended”</ref>
==== Exiting ====
A boat can be exited by {{control|sneaking}} or, {{in|BE}}, pressing down the right analog stick on a controller, tapping the "Leave Boat" button when using touch controls, or {{control|jumping}}. When exiting a boat, the player is placed in the direction the player is facing, or, if facing directly up or down, the player is placed in front of the boat. The exiting player is placed on land if possible from the dismounting position.
==== Motion ====
Boats do not turn with mouse-look.
With a keyboard or gamepad, boats are controlled using the {{control|forward}}, {{control|left}} (turns left), {{control|right}} (turns right), and {{control|backward}} keys. Using the {{control|sprint}} key increases the field of vision, but does not increase speed as if [[sprinting]].
With touchscreen controls, two buttons for steering appear. The right button or key steers to the left, and the left button or key steers to the right. Pressing both buttons or keys moves the boat forward.
{{IN|Java}}, boats can be ridden against a current, but cannot be ridden upstream to a higher elevation. A boat lift, usually made from tripwire, pistons, and optionally a slime block, can be used to move a boat up. Bubble columns created with soul sand can also be used to push boats upward. These mechanisms can also be used {{in|bedrock}} but are usually unnecessary because boats can be ridden upward in descending water, as well as [[Tutorials/Water-powered boat transportation|follow upward stair-step currents]].
== Behavior ==
=== Speed ===
Boats move according to the player's control or water currents, with speed affected by the surface traversed. Boats move extremely quickly on ice,<ref name="MC-97803">{{bug|MC-97803||Boats going faster on ice than in water|WAI}}</ref> allowing for the construction of fast transportation systems in any dimension.

=== Floatation ===
[[File:Oak Boat shake.gif|thumb|right|The animation of an oak boat when atop a [[Bubble Column|bubble column]].]]
A boat floats atop still or flowing water. {{IN|java}}, a boat sinks if it enters a waterfall.<ref>{{bug|MC-91206|||WAI}}</ref> {{IN|bedrock}}, a boat does not sink when submerged but floats up. This feature lets a player contrive stepped uphill water flows to [[Tutorials/Water-powered boat transportation#Floating uphill|propel a boat uphill]] using only flowing water.
When a boat moves over a bubble column, it begins to shake. If the bubbles are caused by a [[Magma Block|magma block]], all passengers are expelled and the boat sinks.
{{IN|java}}, a sunken boat cannot be re-floated until a bubble column pushes it up or it is broken by the player. {{IN|bedrock}}, a boat resumes floating when it emerges from the currents keeping it down, or when the bubble column is blocked or removed.
[[Dolphin]]s chase players riding a boat in motion, occasionally bumping the boat, causing it to shake briefly.
=== Destruction ===
As boats are [[Entity|entities]], they have [[health]]. Boats effectively have just over {{hp|4}} (exactly 4 damage is not quite enough to destroy a boat), and regenerate {{frac|1|10}} per game tick.
Boats can be destroyed by explosions, fire and lava (but not magma blocks), cactus, and by being punched by mobs, such as [[Drowned]]. Boats made invulnerable with commands cannot be broken by any of these, but they still cannot be used to travel on lava because they sink.
When a boat is destroyed under normal conditions, it drops itself in item form. In certain conditions, such as when falling for exactly 12, 13, 49, 51, 111, 114, 198, 202, 310, or 315 blocks,<ref name="MC-119369">{{bug|MC-119369}}</ref> it drops two [[stick]]s and three [[planks]] upon being destroyed.
=== Passengers ===
[[File:Multiple mobs in 2 boats.png|alt=|thumb|Multiple mobs in 2 types of boats.]]
Boats can support two riders, including [[mob]]s. Except for [[Enderman|endermen]] {{in|bedrock}}, a mob cannot exit a boat and is trapped until the boat gets destroyed, or until the player uses a [[Fishing Rod|fishing rod]] or [[lead]] to remove the mob. This can be used to transport mobs, although hostile mobs still attack while in boats. Mobs riding a boat don't despawn{{only|java}} and don't count toward the mob cap.<ref>{{bug|MC-182897|resolution=WAI}}</ref>
A player cannot both move (row) and use items at the same time. It is still possible to initialize item use (e.g. start eating) and row the boat while the item is still in the middle of the use animation. Although the rowing animation overrides the item use animation, the item can still be successfully consumed. This does not work with items that are triggered by the ''release'' of the use button (such as [[Bow|bows]] and [[Trident|tridents]]).{{only|Java}}
Being in a boat limits the player's mouse-look to the forward 210° arc {{in|java}} and 180° {{in|bedrock}}.
Underwater boat cannot be ridden. When the boat is underwater, all passengers in it are expelled.
=== Damage prevention ===
Riding a boat does not deplete [[hunger]], making it an efficient way to travel.
Boats can completely nullify [[fall damage]] for themselves and any players/mobs inside, making them useful for travel through mountains or through the Nether.<ref>{{bug|MC-105103|resolution=WAI}}</ref><ref>{{bug|MCPE-149490|resolution=WAI}}</ref> However {{in|java}}, due to a bug, boats can break when falling from certain heights, and the riders take fall damage.<ref name="MC-119369"></ref>
=== Collision ===
A boat has a solid collision box, which means players and other entities can't go through it even with high speed. Falling blocks are also blocked by boats.
{{IN|java}}, a boat falling on top of an entity stops on top of the entity. {{In|bedrock}}, a falling boat can go through other entities.
Riding a boat over a [[Lily Pad|lily pad]] causes the lily pad to drop, although the boat's speed stutters a bit.
=== Mobs ===
Most mobs can ride boats. Mobs cannot exit the boat unless the boat is destroyed, sinks, or moves over a bubble column. However, {{in|bedrock}}, [[endermen]] are able to teleport out of boats.
Mobs can be picked up into the boat when they collide with the side of the boat. A mob cannot control the boat. {{IN|java}}, a boat being ridden by a player cannot pick up a mob. {{IN|bedrock}}, mobs can be picked up by a boat being ridden by a player.
Mobs wider than the width of a boat cannot be picked up by a boat. [[Warden]]s, and [[wither]]s cannot be picked up by a boat. {{IN|java}}, baby [[sniffer]]s cannot be picked up either.
=== Lead ===
{{IN|java}}, leads cannot be attached to boats. {{IN|bedrock}}, leads can be attached to boats, though the lead can break when stretched too far due to boats moving much slower on land.

{{issue list}}
==Trivia==
*[[Sand]], [[Sand|red sand]], [[Concrete Powder|concrete powder]], [[gravel]], [[anvil]]s, and [[Dragon Egg|dragon egg]]s drop as [[Item (entity)|items]] when they fall onto a boat that is in water.
*A [[chest]] is short enough that a boat falls onto it rather than crashes into it.
*{{IN|console}}, holding the movement stick to the side in a boat on [[Blue Ice|blue ice]] causes the player to spin quickly. If a passenger is in the boat while this occurs, when the player exits the boat after it reaches maximum velocity (attained after about three seconds), for most mobs, the mob's head may spin uncontrollably. For some mobs, however, nothing happens (such as [[slime]]s and [[ghast]]s). The mob may also get its head stuck at an angle. Thorough testing was done on Minecraft: Wii U Edition, although the glitch was originally discovered on the Xbox 360 Edition.

Trivia
- An interesting trick you can do while riding a horse is to get on your horse, press F1 on your keyboard, drink a potion of invisibility, and press F5. It will look like you are the horse, instead of riding on the horse.
- This can be used to trick other players that you are a horse, so they probably wouldn't recognize you, which makes horses a great mob disguise.
- This also works with pigs, but you can only control it with a carrot on a stick, making other players see you holding an item when you are invisible.
- It is possible to jump over wooden fences at the full jump boost (in yellow zone)
- Upon death of a tamed and saddled horse, the horse will drop a regular saddle. This is most likely a bug.
- Horses can have special abilities using potions such as Potion of Swiftness, Potion of Regeneration, Potion of Fire Resistance and Potion of Invisibility
- Horses do not have a sound for right now, but still open their mouths as if they were.
- Even though the skeleton and zombie horses look like undead versions of their counterparts, they are not treated as undead. A Wither will attack them as if they were any other non-undead mob.
- Running over a TNT-cart landmine, even a very powerful "Nuclear minecart" one on a horse will result in the horse dying, but the player being undamaged... until they hit the ground!
- Horses are quite possibly the best method of travelling long distances over-land, they can attain speeds of at least 11 meters/second (660 blocks per minute, nearly 40 km/hour), deal with normally jump-requiring terrain very easily, jump ravines with near-100% consistency, and require no infrastructure except at the ends (they are not good in jungles or some forests though.)
