If I just use like a sheep or cow spawner. And it doesn't seem to spawn in light or dark. Whats my problem?I'm talking about the spawners in soulshards.

How high tier is it? only tier 5 ignores light conditions.

I don't use the Soul Shards Mod (I've seen one video of it) but try placing grass near the spawners, and try it in light. That's how vanilla spawners work.

I see, then I am of no help.

Yea, what he said. Passive mobs require light and grass blocks to spawn. If you have an enchantment table, you can make a silk touch shovel to get grass outside.

Or just use a Rockcutter.

Or a rather high chance of getting grass from a Scrapbox.

If you are using the Soul Shards mod spawners, they should not require grass to spawn passive mobs. On a private server that I and a few friends use, we have a fully functional cow spawner that does not require grass and works light-independent. If you are using a higher-tier spawner, make sure that Redstone current is not being applied, as this will cut off the spawning. If you are using a lower-tier spawner, make sure that the cows are given sufficient room to spawn, try grass if you haven't already (lower tiers may function in different ways; the spawner I have is tier 5) and try higher light levels just in case. Also make sure that the cows have some sort of solid block to spawn on top of or a wall to spawn off of, as this is a requirement for all mobs, whether hostile or passive.
