Horses do not get saved when leaving chunks / Horses despawn
1. Place horses in pen
2. Fly backwards until the pen has unloaded from view & memory
3. Fly back, just like magic they will all have disappeared.
If you exit the game they will save when you relog the game. This also seems to happen with naturally spawning horses. Could not get an error report as it seems F3+C just closes the window down now with no actual report.

O_O tamed horses can Despawn, my friend and i found 2 horses in survival mode, tamed them, and locked them up so they can't go away. badly we needed resources like an saddle. we left them behind and when we came back, the horses were gone.
it was my first horse

@Kumasasa: In Creative, I was able to find them with exceptional rarity, and also documented their anomalous despawning. As I'd suggested earlier in this thread, I suspect what most people reasonably interpreted as total failure to spawn was actually something to do with the spawning/despawning behavior. In an issue thread on the subject of spawning/despawning (MC-13716), it was resolved "works as intended"; but now people are reporting (here and on the forums) that horse spawning appears to happen at a more normal rate. I haven't had a chance to sit down and look for them in my standard testing world to see if they're willing to appear, so I can only go on those reports... but "fixed" and "as intended" seem to be conflicting resolutions. Maybe it was done intentionally and then someone decided to change it? Idunno.
mobs disappear when leaving chunks sometimes
was the horse tamed? because untamed horses will despawn.
No these horses were not tamed. Why would untamed horses despawn though? Untamed wolfs and other passive mobs do not do this.
yes they do
No they do not, not as (mind blank cannot remember the version!) when the yadded real mob farming passive mobs do not despawn.
Just to quote the wiki page on spawning "Unlike monsters, animals do not spontaneously despawn, except for wild ocelots and wolves (which can despawn only when they are hostile)." (EDIT: link is here http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Spawn#Animal_spawning)
http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Wolves#History
here another quote for you: "Wolves only despawn when aggressive; passive and tamed wolves will not."
aannd. horses were based of the MO creatures mod. on the main page of the mod it says in the horses subtopic: untamed horses will despawn.
this not a bug but working as intended
Fair point; if that was the behaviour in the mod then this is fair; but is the spawning behaviour adapted so they spawn more regularly? Or horses would become almost impossible to obtain.
I would say, go find out
!
but I think that if horses spawned too regularly that they won't be special anymore. how cool is it if you're on a server and you're the only one with a horse!
now thats what im talking about
Is this supposed to happen with bred horses as well?
When breeding two horses, the foal isn't tamed from the beginning, thus despawning when leaving the chunk.
Is this really intended behaviour?
Having to wait until a foal is fully grown to be able to tame it to prevent loosing it?
happend to me in 1.6.2 without logging off/out. Horse was tamed, got a saddle and golden armor .. all gone!
REALLY frustrating game experience, please fix this!
Still happens in 1.6.2, I lost a horse with diamond armour because of this, and another without anything.
Both were tamed and bound to a fence, and I'm sure the chunk wasn't unloaded: The horse just vanished.
