I'm pretty new to modding, and I'm trying to add an alternate skin to foxes but my code does not seem to work, despite throwing no errors. I switched the normal sleeping fox texture with the snowy one, but in-game the sleeping red fox still appears as red, so it seems this code is just doing nothing at all. Any help?

	public class RhysFoxRenderer extends MobRenderer<FoxEntity, FoxModel<FoxEntity>> {
		private static final ResourceLocation RHYS_FOX = new ResourceLocation("bvox:textures/entity/fox/rhys_fox.png");

		private static final ResourceLocation SLEEPING_SNOW_FOX = new ResourceLocation("minecraft:textures/entity/fox/snow_fox_sleep.png");

	public RhysFoxRenderer(EntityRendererManager renderManagerIn) {
		super(renderManagerIn, new FoxModel<>(), 0.4F);
	}

	@Override
	protected void applyRotations(FoxEntity entityLiving, MatrixStack matrixStackIn, float ageInTicks, float rotationYaw, float partialTicks) {
		super.applyRotations(entityLiving, matrixStackIn, ageInTicks, rotationYaw, partialTicks);
		if (entityLiving.func_213480_dY() || entityLiving.isStuck()) {
			float f = -MathHelper.lerp(partialTicks, entityLiving.prevRotationPitch, entityLiving.rotationPitch);
			matrixStackIn.rotate(Vector3f.XP.rotationDegrees(f));
		}

	}

	@Override
	public ResourceLocation getEntityTexture(FoxEntity entity) {
		if (entity.getVariantType() == FoxEntity.Type.RED) {
			if (entity.getPersistentData().getBoolean("isRhys")) {
				if( entity.isSleeping()) {
					return SLEEPING_RHYS_FOX;
				}
				else {

				}

				}
				else {
					return FOX;
				}
			}
		}
		else {
			if ( entity.isSleeping()) {
				return SLEEPING_SNOW_FOX;
			}
			else {
				return SNOW_FOX;
			}
		}
	}
}

Thank you very much if you're able to help in any way.

Have you register it? Also if all you are looking for is changing the skin colour you can just add layers to the original renderer instead of override the original renderer.
