EasyBreeding

Feed animals by throwing food.
If the food is thrown by the player. This is equivalent to right clicking with the mouse.

The details are configurable. In easy-breeding.cfg, feedChild means whether or not to feed the child. Children do not reproduce when they eat, but it accelerates their growth, just like hand feeding. Distances is a table that fills in the relationship between registered names and search distances. The default value is 8, and further places will no longer respond. This distance is not circular, it is square.

This is a fork version, below are the original mod:

Easy Breeding adds the ability to breed animals (excepting Ocelots and Wolves) by tossing their breeding food on the ground near them.
This allows very simple automated animal breeding with only vanilla tools.
This mod can be installed on client or server side only.
