I like having biome variants, but please change them to something that better represents the animal:
Warm cows appear to be based off of forest buffalo, which are not cows, aren't even very related to cows, and don't live in deserts.
Warm chickens are some sort of buff breed, most of which are adapted for cold biomes and are bred for meat (see Orpingtons, Brahmas, etc.). They most resemble buff brahmas because of Minecraft's chicken model not having a tail, and buff brahmas would die of heatstroke in any of the biomes warm chickens are in.
Cold chickens are blue but have big hair like a Polish chicken and lay blue eggs. Please don't put any blue egg layers in the game... the blueness is caused by a lethal gene that kills most chicks before they hatch, and that sort of intense blue color on a Polish chicken would be caused by someone injecting them with blue dye before they hatch. Both of those things are horrible and not something I'd want to support if I was making a game.
Here are my proposed solutions to these problems:
Change the warm cow texture (and horn model) to something like longhorn cattle, which are actually cows! Not only are they actually cows, but they've naturally adapted to hot climates over centuries of just being feral in dry grasslands.
Change the warm chicken texture to the Egyptian Fayoumi or else a Red Junglefowl. Both of these animals are actually adapted to hot climates.
Change the cold chicken to the Icelandic and give it white eggs, not blue. Research it.
