Ink Sac

Come on! Grow up! This article is a Minecraft Wiki stub. You can help by expanding the page.

The Ink Sac is a type of item that can be made into a Dye. It is exclusively obtained by killing Squids. It is the darkest possible color dye (hex: 191919 dec: 252525 name: black). Prior to Beta 1.5 and the addition of statistics, this item's name, "Ink Sac," does not appear when the cursor hovers over its icon in the "statistics" page since the ink sac icon is the icon for a dye. Ink sacs are dyes with a data value of 0, and statistics do not track the data values of items. Wandering Traders will sell ink sacs for an Emerald while librarian Villagers will buy ink sacs in exchange for emeralds.
