Sheep are Passive Mobs that are two blocks long and 1.75 blocks tall, therefore, they can't get through spaces less than two blocks tall.
Shears can be used to shave a Sheep's Wool off, giving the player 1-3 wool. The sheep will then look bare. The wool grows back when the sheep consumes the grass on a grass block. Adult Sheep drop 0-1 blocks of wool upon death while babies drop none. It is much more practical to shear a sheep than to kill it.
Sheep can be dyed using different Dyes. If sheared or killed after being dyed, they'll drop the color of wool they are. They can be breed by feeding them Wheat. They will spawn a baby sheep. The baby sheep will be one of the parents color.
