Dragon Mounts · water breed
The breed is a property of a Dragon Mounts dragon, not a separate creature from another mod. Prepare the egg's habitat before hatching.


How to obtain this breed
Place at least 3 water-filled blocks immediately around the egg, keeping its support solid.
Each matching fluid block contributes 1 point. Six aquatic-habitat blocks, such as prismarine or coral, also reach 3 points at 0.5 each.
Prepare the habitat, place the egg on solid support, then interact with an empty hand to start incubation. Adaptation checks happen while hatching, before the final cracked stage. Keep the area loaded and watch for its colour to change. Nearby blocks and fluids must be within one block of the egg on each axis (a 3 × 3 × 3 area). Remove competing habitats; the highest score must exceed 2.
Habitat
Eligible surroundings include corals and coral blocks, seagrass, kelp, prismarine, sea lanterns and sea pickles. Water also contributes through the fluid condition.
Exact habitat conditions and groups
- Egg in fluid group minecraft:water (point multiplier 1)
- Nearby blocks in dragonmounts:water_dragon_habitat_blocks (0.5 points per matching block)
Conditions contribute to the egg's habitat score. The result depends on its surroundings; this is not a promise of instant conversion from one block.
Breed traits
Defined abilities: hydro step.
Damage immunities in the breed definition: drown, cactus, sweet berry bush, dragon breath. These belong to the dragon; do not assume its rider receives the same protection.
Growth and care
Growth time: 72,000 ticks, approximately 60 minutes of ticking time. Taming and breeding use the fish ingredient group. Reproduction limits depend on the server configuration.
Incubation uses random checks. Its 0.1 hatch-chance value is a probability per applicable check, not a percentage per second or a fixed countdown.
