Husk Drop Sand ⌛

The Husk Drop Sand datapack from Vanilla Tweaks gives husks (the desert variant of zombies) a unique loot mechanic: they now have a chance to drop sand when killed.

🧠 How It Works

In vanilla Minecraft:

  • Husks do not drop sand, despite spawning exclusively in desert biomes.

  • Sand is a valuable resource used in glass, TNT, concrete, and red sandstone crafting.

With this datapack:

  • When a husk is killed, it has a chance to drop 1–2 sand blocks.

  • The drop is in addition to the husk's usual loot (rotten flesh).

  • Looting enchantments increase the chance and quantity slightly.

📝 This tweak makes sand renewable in survival mode, especially in cases where desert biomes are limited or destroyed.
