How to put Carpet on a Llama in Minecraft

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to put carpet on a llama with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

After you have tamed a llama in Minecraft, you can put carpet on a llama to add decoration. Let's explore how to do this.

Steps to put Carpet on a Llama

1. Find a Llama

In Minecraft you will need to find a llama.

Llamas are usually found in the Windswept Hills, Windswept Forest and Savanna biomes.

Now that you've found a llama, let's tame it.

2. Tame the Llama

To tame a llama, make sure you have nothing selected in your hotbar. You must use your hand to tame the llama.

You will tame a llama by repeatedly trying to mount the llama and getting bucked off. The game control to mount the llama depends on the version of Minecraft:

• For Java Edition (PC/Mac), right click on the llama.
• For Pocket Edition (PE), you move your pointer over the llama and press the Mount button.
• For Xbox 360 and Xbox One, press the LT button on the Xbox controller.
• For PS3 and PS4, press the L2 button on the PS controller.
• For Wii U, press the ZL button on the gamepad.
• For Nintendo Switch, press the ZL button on the controller.
• For Windows 10 Edition, right click on the llama.
• For Education Edition, right click on the llama.

The llama will buck you off. Each time you are knocked off, try to mount the llama again. After every attempt, the llama will let you sit on it a bit longer before it bucks you off.

When the llama is tamed, you should see red hearts appear all around the llama and the llama will no longer buck you off.

3. Put Carpet on Llama

Now that you have tamed the llama in Minecraft, you can put any color of carpet on it.

In this example, we want to put magenta carpet on the llama. So add the carpet to your hotbar and then:

• For Java Edition (PC/Mac), right click on the llama to mount it and then press E for inventory.
• For Pocket Edition (PE), you move your pointer over the llama and press the Mount button. Once mounted, tap on the button with 3 dots to open your inventory and then tap on the button with the picture of a saddle.
• For Xbox 360 and Xbox One, press the LT button on the Xbox controller to mount the llama and then press the Y button to open your inventory.
• For PS3 and PS4, press the L2 button on the PS controller to mount the llama and then press the Triangle button to open your inventory.
• For Wii U, press the ZL button on the gamepad to mount the llama and then press the X button to open your inventory.
• For Nintendo Switch, press the ZL button on the controller to mount the llama and then press the X button to open your inventory.
• For Windows 10 Edition, right click on the llama to mount it and then press E for inventory.
• For Education Edition, right click on the llama to mount it and then press E for inventory.

A window should open displaying the items that your llama is wearing.

Move the carpet from the hotbar to the carpet box near the llama picture.

After you move the carpet to the box, you will see your llama's appearance change as the magenta carpet is worn.

Now when you return to the game, you should see the llama wearing the magenta carpet as a decoration.

Congratulations, you have just put carpet on a llama in Minecraft!
