Goats are the new rude (and rad) mobs voted into Minecraft via community vote and they are 100% adorable.
There’s a good reason you’ll want to start your own goat farm: Goats provide milk and rare goat horns. Milk is the perfect ingredient for sweet treats such as cookies and cakes and can be used to remove status ailments. Goat horns are harder to obtain, because each goat will only drop two goat horns total. Which is fine, because you only need one per player. Goat horns can be used as an instrument, blowing a loud raid horn to let your allies know when there’s an alarm, or just to get you excited when you’re invading a monster-filled tomb.

How to get goat horns
It’s hard to find a goat aggressive enough to attack you. These creatures are naturally passive and are relatively difficult to anger. Your best bet is to wait for a screaming goat to spawn. These types of goats have a five percent chance of appearing whenever you find a goat, so you’ll be hard-pressed to spot them. When you do, get him to try to ram you and have him hit a block so he can drop his horn. You can do this up to two times to a goat before they can’t lose their horns again.
Once you have the goat’s horn, you can hold it in your hand and blow into it, producing an ideal sound for fighting right before a big fight. They reveal your location, but they’re a fun way to report your location to your friends.

Where to find goat horns in Minecraft?
You can get goat horns in Minecraft by making a goat attack you so that they drop their horns. The best way to get Goat Horns is to find a Howling Goat. These goats differ from ordinary goats in that they sound different and are much more aggressive. Their higher aggressiveness means they are more likely to attack you by ramming than normal goats. You have to be patient, however, as newborn goats have only a 2% chance of being a screaming goat. This means you’ll have to patiently locate a screaming goat, making the process slightly time-consuming.
Once you spot a howling goat, the process of acquiring Goat Horns is quite simple. You can provoke the aggressive screaming goat to attack you, tricking it into hitting a block in the process. After hitting the block, the goat will drop its horn. You can then repeat this process up to two times until the goat can no longer use its horns.
