About SilkSpawners || ★ Ready to rock! 1.8.8 - 1.21.7 supported ★

From SpigotMC

Mine your spawners with an enchanted SilkTouch pickaxe

Current version v8.3.0

Description

Ever wanted to move a mob spawner? With SilkSpawners, you can now pick up and move monster spawners.
If you use a pickaxe with the Silk Touch enchantment you will receive the spawner again.
You can control each mob spawner, allow crafting and of course mod support.

As a reminder I want to say that I worked very long on this and really appreciate a 'thank you' in form of a donation! (See details on the bottom)
