Im not sure i somthing like this has been suggested but idk, why not suggest it.
Texture done by Briggy_Bros, thanks man ur awesome!
Its would be a hostile desert specific mob. but id like it to spawn during the day too. it would have a sand like texture maybe a bit darker so experienced users would be able tell that its it. it would be cool if the creature lies in wait in the sand disguised as a sand block and when mined it rises up from the sand and attacks. it would also walk much slower then the player but it would be impervious to arrows so even if the player gets away they need to fight it head on to get anything.
which brings me to the next problem, i have no clue what this big insect creature would drop. i currently have no clue what it would drop. sorry but im clueless to items
If you have any suggestions on improving this idea please drop a comment
The sift is a massive insect with a nigh-impervious carapace. During the day it disguises as an innocent sandblock, and is very grumpy when awoken. It spawns on sand only, and drops 4 to 11 sandstone and Sift Eggs which it carries upon its back. These eggs can be cooked for scrumptious Sift Caviar, or thrown at the ground to spawn an Immature Sift. Immature Sifts can be trained with some Cactus Green to follow the player and fight for him. They are, however, slow and will not teleport.
Wild Sifts can burrow through sandstone and sand to reach you, but are extremely vulnerable to water. Once touching the latter they will dissolve, leaving no drops. But if by chance, they do manage to bite you, you will lose a whopping 4 hearts. It's advised, then, to hit and run with at it with at least a stone sword, as it is invulnerable to arrows.
Well, hope I helped with the 'what does it drop' part.

Great idea dude! i like the egg idea the best
Maybe, sounds interesting but considering that its would be strong against arrows im pretty sure it would be somwhat stronger then leather [atleast]
