IF THIS IS NOT WORKING FOR YOU, STOP HERE This is a one-stop shop for villager breeding issues for anyone stuck. Breeding mechanics are complex. Common scenario 1: Villagers not making hearts Reason: You must meet the conditions for Love Mode: 1. Both villagers need a “portion” of food. For carrots, 12 is a portion. If one doesn’t have enough, they will share. But it’s entirely possible they aren’t picking up enough food through the day. Consider making sure they have enough farm space to pick 12 carrots each or toss them carrots if you don’t care about making it automatic. AS A NOTE, they must be able to collect carrots so disabling mod griefing will prevent breeding 2. It needs to be between 3pm-5pm to breed. If they miss that window because they don’t have food, they won’t breed until the next day. This is the time villagers gather around and can only breed during gathering time. This is also when they share food. AS A NOTE, freezing the daylight cycle outside those hours or skipping over those hours will make them miss this cycle. Also, even if you keep it at this time or switch it to this time, they have a 5 min cooldown on breeding. Common scenario 2: Breeding starts, but you get angry particles Reason: This only happens when the breeding villagers detect no available beds. Now, beds are claimed by villagers based on being able to pathfind to them. Falling into the hole should break the path and they should lose the claim to the bed. HOWEVER, there’s an undocumented way that the AI removes this claim that I rarely ever seen people mention: The villager must attempt to sleep and fail to find the bed. Once it gets to 6pm, the villagers will try to sleep. Here’s the problem on top of that, it will keep trying for around what I would say is 30 seconds (untested time) before it drops the claim. So, if you sleep right away to pass the night, the villager’s bed claim will remain as it will not update again until the next night. If you also do not have the daylight cycle frozen to not be night or skip the night using commands, it will not break the claim. As a note for this, sleeping in a bed instantly breaks villager claims and so does breaking the bed. In case you wanna fix this without having it be night. That’s all it takes. It’s very easy to have special game rules or be sleeping too quickly in the night to mess up the farm. Check your gamerules, stay up afk to make some villagers. Happy trading! P.S. if you’re having any issues, I’ll update this to contain your issues. But if you build is EXACTLY as designed with zero changes, this should be enough.
@@EchoEld Haha I’m a big fan of leaving what I know in some breeder designs I find as mine used to always break or never work for mysterious reasons. Villager mechanics can be a pain to debug. However, ever since I found the Carpet mod to help me troubleshoot, I share what I’ve learned from testing mine because I know that struggle. Love the design!
@@eispog 5 min CD but mind you they only do it between the hours of 3pm-5pm. So, the reality is it will be once a day as long as other conditions met. Superflat world generation has no effect. If you froze the daylight cycle, you could get them to breed every 5 mins but they wouldn’t be working to collect enough food and the baby would not lose its bed. You’d have to provide food and replace the beds every time.
Thank you so much i was wondering why my 2 viallgers arent breeding when gave them stacks upon stacks of food i just keept geting the bad particles and i just replaced the bes and i worked!! Tyms
I thought my world is corrupt and that's why the villager wont breed but then you said about the mob griefing part and then I realized what I have done wrong. TYSM you earned a new sub.
Thx, I've noticed a lot of people say that that was indeed the problem. Makes me happy because I spent about 1 hour trying to figure it out and when I noticed it, I immediately made a video on it
OMG THANK YOU!!, i hate mob griefing off in my flatworld, and me and my siter were so frustrated, and now we can finally farm villager for our iron farm
Thank you for mentioning the mob griefing gamerule. I have been trouble shooting my custom farm for HOURS on why this didnt work on an SMP with friends. Everything worked in my creative world, just not on the server. The most frustrating part is the villagers would stare at each other, but not actually throw food. I was desperate enough to start looking at villager breeder videos instead of farm videos just to see if i could find a mechanic there that was causing me issues. And luckily I found you.
I once had mob griefing off on a test world while making a villager matrix design, and I didn't realize mob griefing prevents them from taking food. It was driving me absolutely crazy
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS WONDERING WHY IN MY SURVIVAL WORLD AND WENT INTO A NEW WORLD AND IT WORKED, THEN I WENT INTO CREATIVE AND SPAWNED IN 2 VILLAGERS IN MY SURVIVAL WORLD TYYYY
I made a tour but lost the world about 5 months ago because my pc just said no and corrupted it. I do have a compilation though of my world tour which you can check out
bro thankyou mob griefing was the issue bro damn thankyou I was losing interest in the game because of villagers not breeding Thanks bru love you❤❤❤❤❤❤
I play on an smp, and we weren’t able to breed villagers(my teammate and I) The problem was mob grinding being off, so we are now convincing the owner to turn it on.
Took me a few hours i originally thought you cant breed the villager that you cured so i spend hours and hours to find and transport a villager from a village, but thanks to this video i checked and mob griefing was the issue
I suspect my villagers arent breeding because i only have one villager. The other got turned into a zombie and despawned before I could get blaze powder for the potion stand.
the villagers that should breed also need 3 blocks of free space. So if you are building a solid block directly above their head. They won't breed, just let one space free and build then your ceiling. This was my problem.
i have got 28 beds, i gave each villager a stack of bread. i have only 3 villagers, and they still refuse to breed. i also reset all the beds and removed all other beeds in the village..
Do villagers need to be able to access the beds to breed? I want to build a more compact villager breeder, by placing some of the beds off the ground, stacking on top of each other. Will this work?
BRUH SO IT WAS MOB GRIEFING THE WHOLE TIME??? Welp time to install confetti creeper plugin (I hate filling up the holes thats why i want mob griefing off but i need it to be active so ill switch to creepers having a chance to explode to confetti and deal no damage

OMG your the only one to talked about mob griefing could be a problem, THANK YOU, been wasting hours of my life
If mob griefing is off ur just cheating
@@L_Ph0ng mob greifing is off of most realms and servers to stop millions of creeper holes. For bedrock at least idk about java
Same
Same! Like how would I ever know to that was mob griefing
same for me - how long has that taken me - your short solved it right away - thanks
I WAS SO CONFUSED UNTIL THE MOB GRIEFING THING!!! YOU ARE MY HERO OMG!!!
Mob Griefing setting.. you’re my hero
I thought my world is corrupt and that's why the villager wont breed but then you said about the mob griefing part and then I realized what I have done wrong. TYSM you earned a new sub.
THANK YOU!!! mob griefing was off and wow that was the issue with my breeder. Thank you so much!!
you just saved me, i've been trying everything and i didn't realize that mobgriefing would be a problem, no one else was saying that. thank you!
Thx, I've noticed a lot of people say that that was indeed the problem. Makes me happy because I spent about 1 hour trying to figure it out and when I noticed it, I immediately made a video on it
Old mc veteran here. Joined a friend's server who plays the game very casually. I'm almost certain this is the problem. Thank you so much
Thank you so much for your help it's absolutely working 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you, i couldn't figure what I was doin wrong till the Mob griefing came up
OMG THANK YOU!!, i hate mob griefing off in my flatworld, and me and my siter were so frustrated, and now we can finally farm villager for our iron farm
Thank u so much my guy helped a lot
thankyou so much! you are the only guy that mentions how mob greifing affects breeding. what a legend 👏
OMG THANKS THE MOB GRIEFING WAS OFF AND NOW IT WORKS LOL THANKS SO MUCH DUDE
THANK YOU SO MUCH, it was the mob griefing and I couldn't find this anywhere else
THANKS! The mob grieving was confusing me lol
One villager takes the carrots but the other doesnt and the same villager steals the other carrots
Very good video, keep up the good work!

I found this yesterday but couldn't comment at the time, so I came back to say a big thank you!
Didn't even suspect mob griefing!
never liked a single video, but yours deserves it because you've spoken about the mobGriefing part which i havent heard before ;D
High quality video
Oml the most helpful person ever especially bc he gets sraight to the point
I once had mob griefing off on a test world while making a villager matrix design, and I didn't realize mob griefing prevents them from taking food. It was driving me absolutely crazy
Thanks, this helped a lot!!
This helped soon much more compared to the 5 other videos didn't explain the last part about mob griefing which I didn't know affected the villagers
Thank you, it was my settings. Now they're breeding like crazy
thank you bro I only gave my villagers one bread each I didn’t know they need 3 this helped a lot thanks.
Oh my god thank you so much!! This video saved my sanity 😂
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS WONDERING WHY IN MY SURVIVAL WORLD AND WENT INTO A NEW WORLD AND IT WORKED, THEN I WENT INTO CREATIVE AND SPAWNED IN 2 VILLAGERS IN MY SURVIVAL WORLD TYYYY
yo this dude is the goat
BRO thank you for posting this vid I finally realize why my villagers weren't breeding
I did make a video recently where I went more in-depth to the breeding mechanics, so I suggest to check it out.
freaking life saver tysm for the mob griefing tip
Your world looks sick! Make a tour of it!
I made a tour but lost the world about 5 months ago because my pc just said no and corrupted it. I do have a compilation though of my world tour which you can check out

Thank you it was very helpful
Tip: Make a wool farm so that you can get alot of wool (its really easy to make one)
Mob greafing, I never ever would have figured that out. I have it off for creepers but seriously I was so frustrated.
Thanks you're helping me allot
Tysm i did not know the mob griefing part, you saved me
Took me a few hours i originally thought you cant breed the villager that you cured so i spend hours and hours to find and transport a villager from a village, but thanks to this video i checked and mob griefing was the issue
Thank you so much i had 7 villager and 7 beds so i placed 1 more and it worked
Exactly what I needed omg
He helped me thank you so much
big thx man I always play without mob griefing bc the creeper holes r a pain in the ass
Simply just build a big farm in a fenced area around the villager hub. Never have to worry about food only beds and expansion if needed.
This helped so much
I suspect my villagers arent breeding because i only have one villager. The other got turned into a zombie and despawned before I could get blaze powder for the potion stand.
the villagers that should breed also need 3 blocks of free space. So if you are building a solid block directly above their head. They won't breed, just let one space free and build then your ceiling. This was my problem.
Thank you
I turned off mob griefing because of creepers
Time to watch this video to boost it on the algorithm!
Thank you very much good sir
OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH NOTHING ELSE WAS TELLING ME IT WAS BECAUSE OF MOB GRIEFING
I CLUCKING LOVE YOU MAN
Thank you so mucchh I actually destroyed all the beds . Thanksssss❤
Thankyou so much. I spent 2 hours trying to get my villagers to breed then realised I have mob griefing off
another reason is that there needs to be at least two blocks above each bed, as in order to breed, baby villagers must have room to jump on the beds
thank you, its was grieffing! took 3yrs to find that out!
dude your awsome thank you!!!
Yo thanks i put more beds now they made a cute little baby villager
i have got 28 beds, i gave each villager a stack of bread. i have only 3 villagers, and they still refuse to breed. i also reset all the beds and removed all other beeds in the village..
If u give the wit h health boost u have to add Regeneration so it heals up
I just needed more beds, thanks
I spent an hour trying to uninstall and reinstall mods the fix my villagers. Thank you
I made sure there's enough beds gave all of them stacks of carrots but they don't breed
Thanks bro👊
The mob griefing was the problem! Tyty
Thank you so much bro. I had mob. Griefing on
IT WAS MOB GRIEFING LOL. THANK YOU SO
MUCH.
Do villagers need to be able to access the beds to breed? I want to build a more compact villager breeder, by placing some of the beds off the ground, stacking on top of each other. Will this work?
Idk if you still have this question but They can link to beds from afar. I think there might be a certain radius to how far tho
does having a iron farm just above the fluffing zone may prevent the villager to reproduce?
They have bed, I gave them 3x to 3x bread. The hearts appeared and no babies. 20 minutes passed and nothing changed
I still see no bridge
They breed but they wont go to bed they would just stare at me through the windows all night long 😂😢
And is this setting when it turned off is it stops getting villagers a job when you are trying to make this villager have a job?
AYOOOO BEDS
bro the villagers have a better life than me 😢
thank you so much.
I think mob griefing is off and thats why it wasnt working.
Thanks for also doing this on bedrock cause I couldnt find anything for this
And if your villager can't farm ,
Mob grieving is on too.
Thank your for this video
But I don't want any green pigs blowing up my structures
thank you, had no idea why the villagers wouldnt pick up the carrots
I turn mod griefing off as soon as my builds start looking pretty or when I have a cat. Creepers make my soul hurt w/ their bs.
I’ve got 30 beds gave my villagers a bunch of carrots I have mob griefing on but nothing
Thanks i only have 2 villager in my survival curr from zombified.. i havent give em bread 😅
FINALLYYYYYY they made a baabyhyyyy
im following all rules, they go to breed, then last moment they have the frustration then don't
Thank you very much
mob griefing requires cheats so i cant breed if I don't want cheats enabled?
Well by default, mobgriefing is turned on, so unless you've changed the setting before, you should be able to breed just fine
Why are they making bonemeal instead of breeding
What to do if the villagers aren't picking up the bread? or any food item?
Watch the full video
Bro I’ve given each of them like 6 bread the room is 6 blocks high and they still ain’t breeding
Thank you!
I have 25 beds
Gave villagers 14 stacks of bread and they dont wanna breed, why?
why does a cured villager already have a job despite there not being a workstation?
Best viedo ever!
Question, if mob grieving is off can I give them a farm to make them do it by themselves???
Nope, because them breaking "blocks" (crops) also counts as mob griefing
@@EchoEld thx
thank you 🙏
Bread🍞 left the game
BRUH SO IT WAS MOB GRIEFING THE WHOLE TIME???
Welp time to install confetti creeper plugin (I hate filling up the holes thats why i want mob griefing off but i need it to be active so ill switch to creepers having a chance to explode to confetti and deal no damage
But doesn't mob griefing turn off achievements ?
Tysm man
