How to Tame Camel Husks in Minecraft

The Camel Husk is an undead variant of the traditional camel in Minecraft, set to debut with the Mounts of Mayhem update. It spawns exclusively in desert biomes at night when the light level is zero, with a 10% chance of appearing with two riders: a Husk and a Parched. Camel Husks require open spaces for spawning and cannot be found in caves. To tame a Camel Husk, players must first defeat its riders and then feed it a rabbit's foot, which will result in red hearts appearing above its head. Players can ride the Camel Husk after taming it by equipping a saddle, which allows for navigation and speed bursts. Camel Husks are immune to sunlight and have a robust health bar. Breeding between Camel Husks is not possible.

Minecraft Snapshot 25w44a

In the latest Snapshot release, a new undead passive mob called the camel husk has been introduced, which spawns in desert areas and is often accompanied by hostile riders. The camel husk is unaffected by sunlight and typically appears with a husk wielding a spear and a parched skeleton. It is passive when unmounted but becomes hostile if ridden by a hostile mob. The Snapshot also features a new variant of skeleton called the parched, which appears in low-light conditions and is resistant to sunlight. The spear's lunge enchantment has been adjusted to reduce hunger consumption, and mounts such as horses, mules, donkeys, and camels can now float in water while ridden. New advancements have been added to incorporate the camel husk and parched, along with a new graphical option called "Anisotropic Filtering" to enhance visual quality. Parrots can now mimic sounds from various mobs, and environmental fog in the Nether is consistently applied. Ridden mounts will no longer sink in water, and chunks fade in smoothly. The Data Pack and Resource Pack versions have been updated, and several game rules have been renamed and organized into a registry. New limits for game rules have been established, and modifiers for ARGB color values have been introduced. Numerous bugs have also been fixed in this release.
