Horse Armor

Horse armor is a special type of armor that can be given to a horse to wear.
== Obtaining ==
===Chest loot===
===Crafting===
Only leather horse armor can be crafted; other horse armor can be obtained only from chest loot from some generated structures.
===Trading===
Expert-level leatherworker villagers sell leather horse armor for 6 emeralds as part of their trade.
==Usage==
Only normal adult horses can wear armor; foals, donkeys, mules, and undead variants such as skeleton horses and zombie horses cannot be equipped with armor.
=== Types ===
Horse armor has leather, iron, gold, and diamond variants. However, horse armor does not have netherite or chainmail variants.
=== Armor Stands ===
Horse armor cannot be placed or displayed on armor stands. 
===Protection===
Horse armor can be equipped to horses either by manually placing it in its respective slot by pressing E while riding the horse (), or by right-clicking the horse with it.
There is a gradual increase in the defense given from a horse wearing the different types of armor. Note that golden horse armor provides more protection than iron horse armor, whereas the opposite is true for player armor.

When a horse dies while equipped with any horse armor, it drops its normal loot, saddle (if it had one), and the horse armor.
Leather horse armor protects horses from freezing in powder snow, but it does not negate other powder snow effects (e.g., falling through, inability to jump).
===Durability===
Unlike player armor, horse armor does not have durability. This means a single horse armor can be used infinitely unless destroyed.
=== Enchanting ===
Unlike player armor, horse armor cannot be enchanted in survival mode. However, Creative mode, horse armor can be used with an anvil to enchant with Depth Strider, Thorns, Respiration, Feather Falling, and Curse of vanishing. Other enchantments can be applied, but they have no effect.
=== Dyeing ===
Leather horse armor can be dyed 12,326,391 different colors (using lone dyes or dye combinations) and put onto a horse to display that color. These changes can be reverted by a filled cauldron with dyed leather horse armor.
===Smelting usage===
===Piglins===
 are attracted to golden horse armor and run toward any golden horse armor on the ground, inspecting it for 6 to 8 seconds before putting it in their inventory.
