Knowing
how
to
breed
villagers
in
Minecraft
is
almost
as
important
as
doing
everything
else
in
the
game,
like
building
impressive
structures
or
digging
huge
mines.
More
hands
mean
more
is
done,
from
farming
to
trading,
and
mostly
anything
else
you
can
think
of.
Breeding
your
villagers
is
fairly
simple
but
it
helps
to
know
what
to
do.
For
the
most
part,
core
needs
to
be
met
and
that
means
keeping
your
villagers
happy,
fed,
and
with
a
bed
by
their
side
to
snooze
in.
If
you
want
to
go
the
lazy
way,
you
can
use
cheats
but
that’s
hardly
the
point
of
the
game.
Instead,
below
you’ll
find
each
step
for
how
to
breed
villagers
in
Minecraft
and
gain
your
own
cute
little
offspring.
While
you’re
working
on
expanding
your
Minecraft
plans,
consider
signing

for
some
of
the
best
Minecraft
server
hosting
so
you’re
always
in
control
of
what
happens.

Step
by
step
guide
1.
Find
some
villagers
(Image:

To
make
more
villagers,
you
need
some
to
begin
with.
Find
an
established
village
that
is
monster-free
ideally,
and
has
some
structures
for
them
to
live
in.
Living
inside
a
structure
isn’t
essential
but
it’s
a
useful
bonus
as
it
will
keep
the
villagers
closer
to
each
other
and
more
likely
to
breed.
2.
Build
some
beds
(Image:

Reassuringly,
you
won’t
see
any
villagers
doing
‘anything’
on
their
beds
but
they
still
need
one
each
to
breed.
Also,
you
need
an
extra
bed
ready
for
the
offspring
to
have
somewhere
to
sleep.
Beds
can
be
crafted
from
three
blocks
of
wool
and
three
wooden
plank
blocks
using
a
crafting
table.
Place
them
inside
your
structure.
You
can
place
them
outside
like
we
have,
but
it’s
a
little
cruel
on
the
villagers.
3.
Throw
some
food
around
(Image:

Villagers
aren’t
too
keen
on
getting
comfy
together
if
they’re
hungry
or
unhappy.
Just
like
all
of
us,
right?
Feed
them
by
throwing
some
food
around.
You
need
three
loaves
of
bread,
12
carrots,
12
beetroot,
or
12
potatoes
in
each
villager’s
inventory.
In
reality,
more
is
more.
It
keeps
them
happy.
That
should
be
all
you
need
but
trading
with
the
villagers
can
help
them
become
even
happier.
4.
Wait
for
your
villagers
to
breed
(Image:

Now
you’ve
set
the
scene,
you
need
to
wait
for
your
villagers
to
fall
for
each
other.
This
can
take
a
little
while
but
it’s
improved
if
you
keep
them
happy,
they
feel
safe
in
their
surroundings,
or
they
have
plenty
of
food
available.
When
hearts
float
around
them,
you’re
in
luck
and
a
tiny
villager
will
appear
soon.
5.
Say
hi
to
the
little
villager
(Image:

Future)
Hurrah,
you
now
have
a
new
tiny
villager
as
part
of
your
posse!
The
child
villager
will
grow
up
in
about
half
an
hour
and
from
there,
you’re
all
set
to
get
them
to
work
or
breed
them
with
someone
else.
Minecraft
is
super
efficient
like
that
and
a
lot
more
clinical
than
life.
FAQs
Do
I
need
a
house
to
breed
villagers?
Your
villagers
don’t
need
a
home
to
breed
in,
but
it
helps.
Any
Minecraft
house
is
sure
to
encourage
them.
By
building
one,
your
villagers
will
feel
safer
and
more
likely
to
want
to
breed.
They
also
won’t
wander
so
far
and
proximity
is
everything
here.
Just
make
sure
the
home
still
has
some
room
for
the
villagers
to
wander.
It’s
not
meant
to
be
a
prison.
Why
won’t
my
villagers
breed
in
Minecraft?
If
your
villagers
seemingly
refuse
to
breed,
it
can
be
for
one
of
a
few
reasons.
Make
sure
they’re
happy.
Keep
them
secure
away
from
monsters,
make
sure
there’s
plenty
of
food,
and
enough
beds
for
everyone
(including
the
future
offspring),
and
maybe
do
some
trading
of
items
to
boost
their
happiness.
Finally,
be
patient.
It
can
take
a
little
while.
Final
thoughts
Breeding
villagers
is
a
key
way
of
developing
your
Minecraft
world.
It
makes
the
place
less
lonely,
more
active,
and
opens
up
the
potential
for
trading.
It
generally
makes
things
feel
more
open
and
eventful.
For
the
best
experience,
maybe
try
it
alongside
using
one
of
the
best
Minecraft
seeds
to
see
how
varied
things
can
get.
