What is this small gray rat-like mob that emerges from stone in Minecraft?
I've come across an unknown animal, it's small, gray and it's emerging from the stone.
It looks like a rat, but theres so many of them. Have I been hacked?
Solution 1:
A Silverfish. Silverfish hide in stone type blocks to emerge when their block is broken or when other Silverfish in the area of a Silverfish block are damaged. You can tell Silverfish blocks from stone observing the mining speed with a pickaxe and with your hand. If a stone block breaks slowly with a pickaxe, and at the same speed with your hand, it has been infested.
