A goat horn is a horn dropped by goats. It has eight variants, and each plays a unique sound when used which can be heard by players in a large radius.
Obtaining
Mob loot
A horn is dropped when an adult goat rams a tree or any other hard block that occurs naturally where goats spawn. These include stone, coal ore, copper ore, iron ore, emerald ore, log, or packed ice. Goats do not ram other solid blocks. In Java Edition, these blocks are listed under the snaps_goat_horn
tag, and can be modified by data packs.
Up to two horns can be dropped from an adult goat, or one horn if the goat spawned with only one horn. Regular goats may drop the "Ponder", "Sing", "Seek", and "Feel" horns, while screaming goats drop the "Admire", "Call", "Yearn", and "Dream" horns. A specific goat drops only one type of horn; that is, if a goat drops a "Sing" horn, its other horn is also a "Sing" horn.

- ↑ Jump up to: a b Does not contain goat horn variants that drop from screaming goats.
Only the four variants from regular goats can be found here.
Usage
When used, they play a loud sound that can be heard from up to 256 blocks, but are also limited by the server view distance. Each horn variant plays a unique sound. There are eight variants, four of which are exclusive to screaming goats.
There is a cooldown of seven seconds between each use of the horn. All goat horns are affected by this cooldown.
