I was playing on a SMP server, killing mobs, when I found a bed in my inventory that was not there before.
Is it possible that a mob dropped it? I guess I could have randomly picked up a bed but I wasn't near any other players or anything like that. I checked on the minecraft wiki but didn't see any mention of this.
The types of mobs I killed included skeletons, zombies, spiders, and one enderman. Version 1.2.4
put a slab on the square you are standing on and leave a 1 square gap in the direction the water is flowing from (use glass if you want to be able to see what's coming). The slab will prevent anything from being pushed through but you will automatically pick up the items as they approach.
Adding a picture to clarify:
Side view:
G W
UG W
UG W
SWWWWW
W = water
= blank space
G = glass
U = where you stand
S = Slab
The chickens won't be able to move into where you are due to the half slab keeping them in the water tile beneath the glass.
MobLocator
Due to there not being any plugin that currently does this, I have developed one.
It is called MobLocator and can be download here.
/mobloc shows the number of each type of mobs that are present in the world./mobloc [mobType] shows the location of the 10 closest mobs of type mobType. (Using euclidean distance). Note, you can use a mobType of all.
Feedback welcome.
Edit: Updated link to version 1.0.6, I forgot squid.

The Minecraft Wiki has a table of common and rare drops for mobs. None them seem to drop beds, and I've certainly never heard of such a thing happening either. I suspect you just managed to pick one up from somewhere without noticing.
