How to Tame a Llama in Minecraft
Before you can ride a llama, you’re gonna have to tame it. To find one you’ll need to head out into the world and explore. These fuzzy friends can usually be found in the Savanna and Extreme Hills biomes. If you’re having trouble finding one you can also summon a llama via a cheat by entering /summon llama.
Once you’ve got your llama in front of you, you’re gonna need to get some feed for it. Accumulate either 5 hay bales or 10 wheat, and you’re ready to go. Select the food and use it on the llama. Once you’ve fed it either 10 wheat or 5 hay bales, it will refuse to eat anymore. It’s at this point that it’s ready to ride.
You can also tame a llama by just repeatedly mounting it until it stops bucking you off, but that takes longer.

Once you’ve fed your llama make sure you have nothing equipped. You can then mount the llama and attempt to ride it. Sometimes, even if you feed it first, it’ll buck you. Just keep trying to saddle up, and it’ll eventually stop.
Now you can use the llama as your personal steed. You can even tame a whole herd of them if you want to. The llama can also carry a chest or a decorative carpet on its back. The choice is yours to make.
