How to Breed Horses and Donkeys in Minecraft
Last updated
Ever wondered how to mix and match your equine friends in Minecraft? You’re in for a treat! Let’s dive into the world where horses and donkeys create something special.
So, you’re curious about how to bring together horses and donkeys in the blocky universe of Minecraft, are you? Well, it’s simpler than you might think, and the result is pretty awesome.
The Quick Answer: Yes, You Can!
Breeding horses and donkeys in Minecraft is not only possible, but it also produces a unique and useful creature: the mule. To start, you need a horse and a donkey.
First things first, make sure both animals are tamed. You can tame them by repeatedly attempting to mount them until you see hearts. Next, bring them close together and feed each of them a golden apple or a golden carrot. Voilà! You’ll soon witness the birth of a baby mule.
Why Breed Horses and Donkeys?
Why go through the trouble? Mules! These hybrids carry the best of both worlds. Like donkeys, mules can carry a chest, allowing you to transport a large number of items. However, they’re also faster and can jump higher than their donkey parents, making your adventures across the Minecraft landscape that much smoother.
Remember, mules cannot breed, so each mule requires a fresh pair of horse and donkey parents. This makes them a bit of a luxury in the Minecraft world, but oh, what a luxury they are!
