Build /summon commands with custom NBT for every vanilla mob — baby variants, equipment, colors, and mob-specific options.

Run /summon from an operator’s chat, a command block, or the server console. Not every internal NBT field is covered — this generates the commonly-used ones for each mob.

How to Use the Pig Summon Generator

  1. Type pig into the search box (or leave the default – this page opens straight to the Pig panel).
  2. Toggle Is Baby for a small piglet instead of an adult.
  3. Check Saddle if you want the pig to spawn already saddled and rideable with a carrot on a stick.
  4. Copy the generated /summon command and paste it into a command block, the server console, or an operator’s chat.

Command Syntax & NBT Reference

The base command is /summon minecraft:pig ~ ~ ~ {NBT}. This tool fills in the {NBT} portion for you:

  • IsBaby:1b – spawns a piglet (smaller hitbox, faster relative movement, and it can’t be ridden until it grows up or is bred to adulthood).
  • Saddle:1b – attaches a saddle directly to the entity without needing to craft or place one by hand. A saddled adult pig can be mounted and steered with a carrot on a stick, but it never takes fall damage reduction or extra speed – it’s purely a basic, slow mount.

A saddle placed this way behaves identically to one added in survival: right-clicking the pig later with an empty hand won’t remove it, and the saddle drops as an item if the pig dies. Checking Saddle on a baby pig attaches the tag but has no visible effect until it grows up, since baby pigs can’t be ridden regardless of the saddle flag.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I ride a saddled pig immediately after summoning it?

Yes, as long as it’s an adult (Is Baby left unchecked) and you’re holding a carrot on a stick to steer it – right-click the pig to mount, then hold the carrot on a stick and look in the direction you want to move.

Does a lightning strike still turn this pig into a Zombified Piglin?

Yes. That transformation is unconditional vanilla behavior tied to any pig getting struck by lightning, and this generator doesn’t add any protection against it – it isn’t something the saddle or baby fields affect.

Will the saddle drop if the pig dies while I’m riding it?

Yes, a saddled pig drops its saddle as an item on death just like a saddle added by hand in survival, so you can pick it back up and reuse it.

Why doesn’t this generator have a color or breed option like Sheep or Wolf?

Pigs don’t have a variant or color attribute in vanilla Minecraft – every pig looks the same aside from age, so Baby and Saddle are the only meaningful NBT fields for this mob.
