Sheep are such lovable and furry creatures that roam Minecraft. They vary when it comes to the colors but there is one thing that you are allowed to change. For instance, when a red sheep mates with a blue one, it produces either red or blue sheep.
Why don’t you sacrifice some realism and have the above mix produce a purple one? Here is how it works. When a primary sheep is bred with another one from primary sheep, their offspring will be of the standard paint combination color. A primary one added with a secondary one will make the primary color if the primary one is used in the creation of the secondary one. Or else, this one will either produce the secondary sheep.
A primary one and a tertiary one will make brown unless the primary one is used in the creation of the primary one. White sheep mixes with the other ones will make a lighter version if there is a possibility, else it will do nothing. Black combines with any other sheep will make a darker version if possible, or else it will make black. Here is the full Minecraft sheep color list.
