The babies will take about 20 minutes to grow up, so don't kill too many adults too fast. You can only breed adult animals if you feed two of them at about the same time. They will go over to each other and begin to look like they are kissing. Chickens are a special case, because not only do they breed with any seeds, but they also lay eggs, and throwing eggs has a chance to produce chicks.
This makes them very easy to multiply in general. Collecting and throwing eggs will increase the number you can slay. They will also need a fairly large pen with grass to recover their wool after shearing. Breeding has a cooldown of five minutes, so you cannot breed the parents right after you already bred them.
There are limits to how many animals you can keep in a given pen. In modern versions of Minecraft, if animals are packed too tightly 24 in a single block space , they will begin dying of overcrowding. If there is a mix of adult and baby animals, the adults will specifically be killed off first, which allows for construction of a "cow crusher" popularized by the youtuber Wattles.
This does work for pigs and sheep, but for various reasons leather cows are the usual inmates. Note: In older versions of Minecraft, overcrowded animals could be pushed into the walls of the pen. If those were solid blocks, the animal would suffocate; if they were fences or transparent blocks, the animal could be pushed right through them. In some versions, animals were prone to "phasing through walls" between a game save and restore. Feeding at twice the rate as you slay your mobs is enough to keep mobs at roughly their current population.
If you are hatching chickens from eggs, a batch of newly-hatched chickens will take just about an hour to grow up and then replace the eggs used to hatch them.
When breeding animals in a fenced-in pen and you have a large amount of them, it can be difficult to leave the pen without animals escaping. Some ways to deal with this:. Most of these farms include a killing mechanism, a cooking mechanism for the meat and an item collector, usually a hopper.
The cooking mechanism and killing mechanism are often combined, in the form of lava or fire. This design uses a sticky piston water gate to control the amount of animals to be cooked. They will be dropped through a "lava blade" which enables their meat to be cooked efficiently. Note that this does not work on chickens and rabbits. This is an easy farm to set up that only requires the user to breed animals and press a button. If you are herding other animals, wheat will herd cows, carrots herd pigs, and seeds herd chickens.
This will work for several animals at once. Leads - Right click the sheep with the lead in your hand, and it will attempt to follow you around. A lead only works for one animal at a time; you can hold multiple leads at once, but each animal will require a separate lead.

Screenshot of the Week. Submit your photo Hall of fame. Featured on Meta. If you kill pigs by setting them on fire, then your pork chops will be ready-cooked, but you will have to live with the knowledge that you are a horrible person.
Sheep will drop one block of wool if you kill them, but they will drop more if you right click them with shears. Sheep will regrow wool after shearing, if they have grass to eat, so you can get lots of wool over time. If you want coloured wool, you can dye the sheep first for greater efficiency. After shearing, the wool will grow back the same colour you dyed it.
You can, of course, dye coloured sheep white with bonemeal. If you breed coloured sheep together, the babies will be the same colour as one of the parents, not a mix. Minecraft 1. See what's new. Farming Sheep, Cows and Pigs in Minecraft Farming cows, sheep or pigs will provide a ready source of meat for food. Pigs can be ridden, after a fashion, but you would be better off with a horse The same techniques also apply to chickens, but they also lay eggs, which is an easier way to increase their numbers.
