Most Frequently Asked Questions

This section contains information about Minecraft’s village inhabitants and breeding.

What other breeds can I have besides Villagers?

Minecraft allows you to breed many species, including villagers. You can also breed horses, donkeys and cows as pets. Each animal species has its own breeding requirements. To breed horses, you must feed them a golden apple and a golden carrot. After eating wheat, cows, goats and sheep will breed. Pigs will eat carrots and potatoes. Villagers only need 12.

After eating any type of meat, wolves will reproduce. Cats prefer to eat raw fish, while chickens like seeds. Certain foods can make babies grow faster. You can make your baby animals grow faster by feeding them certain types of food. Horses, for example, will grow faster if they eat grass and sheep, if they eat sugar.

It is a good idea to create Minecraft Villagers.

There are two reasons to breed Minecraft villagers. You can trade with them. You’d need enough villagers to supply all the goods you need, since each villager is a specialist in a different trade.

Second, you must replace your villager(s) who may die due to various reasons. Thirdly, it is fun to grow your village. Iron golems will spawn when the village grows enough to provide protection for the residents.

What are the possible professions for Villagers in Minecraft?

Many of the villagers have a profession and provide certain goods. Their appearance is distinctive and helps them to be identified. For emeralds, armourers can trade iron, chainmail, or diamond armour. Butchers can sell you emeralds as well as meat. Cartographers trade maps, banners, and compasses for emeralds or compasses.

Visit a cleric villager to obtain gemstones. Fletchers can help you get hunting and crafting tools. Farmers, fishermen, leatherworkers and librarians are just a few of the other villager occupations. Unemployed villagers look just like any other villager.

By creating a new job website, you can help them find a job. Nitwit is another non-trading villager. If you try to trade, they wear green coats.

What is the reputation in Minecraft?

Minecraft has a unique reputation. It can range from -30 to +30 starting at 0. Trading with villagers can increase your reputation and help you improve your professional skills. Your reputation can be damaged if you kill or attack a villager, or their child.

If your village is overcrowded, don’t kill anyone. Instead, send them away. It drops below 15 and villagers become hostile towards you. Iron golems attack your village, making it nearly impossible to trade. You will lose 10 points reputation if an iron golem is killed. Your reputation can also be affected by gossiping villagers. While breeding villagers won’t improve your reputation, you can make a baby villager an apprentice to increase your reputation.

Expand your Village
With the help of this guide, you can easily increase the population of your Minecraft village, regardless of its version. Protect your village residents and provide enough work sites to allow them to trade. Don’t forget to consider your village reputation – if it is too low, the iron golems will ban you from the village and you will lose the ability to interact with the villagers.
