 Description   

Xperia Z5

Animals (chickens/pigs/sheep/cows) take the food (seeds or wheat for example) continuously. So you can spend a whole stack of wheat on one sheep.
How to produce:

Spawn/find a passive animals (sheep for example)
Long press on it while holding wheat or tap the "feed" button repeatedly.
You'll notice that you can feed it as much as you want.

Affects 1.16.100

Affects 1.16.200.56 Beta

Comment by Noel Patrick [ 02/Aug/20 ]

this bug is still present in 1.16.1, all of the breedable animals can be fed more than once :< making it a hassle of feeding a bunch of them since one of them would get fed more than once wasting some of the food

sometiems what happens to me is that when breeding cows,hearts will appear on both of them but they will not breed,however i have had it to breed once i fed them around 10-20 wheat

Comment by Nicolas Bignami [ 11/Feb/20 ]

Someone can confirm if this will be fixed sometime? Or is totally discarded?

Comment by Dean Taylor [ 31/Jan/20 ]

Having the same problem here. win10 ver 1.14.20

Two cows ate a whole stack of wheat between them instead of one piece each and then breed

Comment by AlexanderJ. [ 29/Jan/20 ]


I have the impression that feeding works as Lokig predicts and sometimes does not work at all. Sometimes 10 animals eat the whole stack empty, sometimes I consume exactly 10 units.

Comment by [Mod] GoldenHelmet [ 26/Jan/20 ]

Confirming this still has not been fixed in 1.14.1. Affects rabbits too.

Comment by Nicolas Bignami [ 09/Sep/19 ]

This still a problem, please fix it up

Comment by Insane96MCP [ 05/Jul/19 ]

Can confirm in 1.11.3 

Comment by Shane Whitaker [ 01/Apr/19 ]

This bug is still a problem in 1.10 and it severely diminishes the effectiveness of most animal farm designs. Please fix this soon!

Comment by Jordan Valdez [ 31/Dec/18 ]

Affects 1.8 as well.

Comment by Jordan Valdez [ 30/Aug/18 ]

It still affects Windows 10 edition as of 1.6.0. It also seems to affect Bedrock Edition on the Nintendo Switch.

Comment by Jay [ 08/Mar/18 ]

Affects Minecraft 1.2.10 PC as well.

Comment by Dylan [ 19/Dec/17 ]

Affecting Bedrock Edition v1.2.7 on Xbox One. Please fix! Very frustrating to create efficient farms!

Comment by [Mojang] Mega_Spud (Jay Wells) [ 23/Oct/17 ]

Reopening - affects 1.2.3.6 and 1.2.5.0 beta.

Comment by [Mojang] Mega_Spud (Jay Wells) [ 25/Jan/17 ]

Confirmed to affect Android and Windows 10 also.

Animals can be continuously fed until they have bred, which only then disables feeding/breeding for the allotted time.
