Can somebody replace the Death sound because there are XP sounds in. – Unsigned comment added by Sileudies (talk • contribs) at 17:10, 8 November 2020 (UTC). Sign comments with ~~~~

The page says "it can't be tamed without use of commands" and "if tamed&saddled,is rideable" So I wonder is there a way to ride it without using commands? If not,the page should say "if tamed using commands and saddled,iss rideable" 14.209.43.146 06:40, 12 July 2021 (UTC)

If there is a texture change, it will be noted once it is in a snapshot or Preview. BDJP ^(t|c) 22:31, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

...Why are jockeyed zombie horses listed as hostile? Batbrain55 (talk) 12:42, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

Zombie horses are in-game code listed as hostile mobs. Chickens also spawn naturally by themselves, zombie/skeleton horses always spawn as enemies first, as mounts. Rogerio980Pizzaa (talk) 13:08, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

Maybe that's true, but by how the wiki groups hostile/neutral/passive mobs, they don't count as hostile. Hostile mobs, as this wiki judges them, must be able to attack players. Zombie horses don't attack players. They just help zombies do so. So at best, they're netural while being ridden, but more realistically, because even neutral mobs must be capable of dealing damage on their own, it'll be fine if we just call them passive and say the zombie controls its movements.

Eh idk it feels wrong to just list it as a passive when its clearly different from the others, it does not even spawn in peaceful anymore, and is required for the monsters hunted advancements. Im more proned to list it with the neutral mobs, even if they don't harm the player directly, only helping the enemy. Rogerio980Pizzaa (talk) 13:19, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

With even mojang itself stating that its hostility is tied to their riders. I 👁 Image
 Support listing it as neutral. Rogerio980Pizzaa (talk) 13:21, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

I'm indifferent, but if you do it, make sure to make the same change for skeleton horses and zombie nautiluses.

And chickens. :) Batbrain55 (talk) 13:42, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

Chickens are not the same, they spawn by themselves, the undead horses (and the zombie nautilus) always spawn as hostile mounts first. Rogerio980Pizzaa (talk) 14:18, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

According to the text and the minecraft.net article, zombie horses can now spawn in plains and savannas. However, the infobox says that they also spawn in the variants thereof, e.g. sunflower plains, savanna plateau, etc. Which is correct? --MinecraftExp123^{(talk|contribs)} 01:39, 12 October 2025 (UTC)

The minecraft.net articles uses "plains and savanna biome types", which is a bit vague and could be interpreted to also include variants. Anyway, zombie horses do spawn in sunflower plains, savanna plateaus and windswept savannas.--Capopanzo (talk | contribs) 02:07, 12 October 2025 (UTC)

Okay, I added "and variants thereof" to the Zombie Horseman section. --MinecraftExp123^{(talk|contribs)} 02:10, 12 October 2025 (UTC)

Snowy Plains has sometimes been considered a Plains Biome variant. Seemingly, they also can spawn zombie horses. It took me several MC Wiki articles before I found this in like 1 total one, so perhaps someone should add, ".. including Snowy Plains.." to some more? I'd thought this might be meant to exclude regular Snowy Plains. Not even getting-into whether Bedrock Edition even Has Zombies themselves in Snowy Plains.. or Z Horses... - Yilante 12 /26 /25 5:40 a.m. 2600:1702:30A0:D290:A1BA:8E3B:D7C1:80A3 13:40, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

I've clarified the "savanna and plains biomes and variants thereof" into a complete list of biomes, which indeed does include snowy plains. Zombie horses are already mentioned in the description and mob tables in Snowy Plains, not sure where else they should be mentioned.--Capopanzo (talk | contribs) 15:57, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

Should the tabs be normal, saddled, baby or current, upcoming JE, upcoming BE? 👁 Image

ok, it my feedback Liyz7928 (talk) 00:00, 12 December 2025 (UTC)

If you check the Zombie Horse's info, there is a mark in the history tab that says textures were changed in 23w03a. I don't think there are any differences, but if there is, a contribution to adding the texture is needed (including accurate comparison) IAmMeWhoIsYou (talk) 09:40, 12 December 2025 (UTC)

I’ve maded that change! I don’t know if my render’s are the best, but it’s visible the change on zombie horse’s unused saddlebag texture MCitizein (talk) 22:36, 17 December 2025 (UTC)

I thought that zombie horses could be bred. Can someone verify that they can’t? 216.103.96.253 14:36, 17 December 2025 (UTC)

 Verified in Java Edition 1.21.11. ‑‑MinecraftExp123^{(talk|contribs)} 14:43, 17 December 2025 (UTC)

Okay, got it 216.103.96.253 14:45, 17 December 2025 (UTC)

Since the leather Armored zombie horse file doesn't exist and it's a red link. And copper horse armor is basically a recolored version of the Diamond Horse Armor. So iron horse armor looks very stylish becuz of the Chainmail neck area 161.29.248.37 23:44, 18 December 2025 (UTC)

is the Bedrock Edition baby zombie horse model in the infobox correct? 👁 Image
NmF (talk) 16:02, 20 December 2025 (UTC)

The history of this page shows that zombie horses received a feeding sound effect in snapshot 15w47b, during the development of Java Edition 1.9. However, in snapshot 25w46a, during the development of Java Edition 1.21.11 (Mounts of Mayhem), sounds were also added for when a zombie horse is fed (registered in its bug correction list). Therefore, it appears that at some point this sound change was reverted and then re-added, which has not been registered in the Java Edition history section yet... Also, a contribution for search for these sounds to add them to the zombie horse sounds section would be great! MCitizein (talk) 00:30, 28 December 2025 (UTC)
