If you have the latest versions of the Java Edition or\u00a0Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, you can find and\u00a0breed\u00a0Armadillos. That said, breeding these cute little Minecraft critters is easier said than done. How to breed Armadillos in\u00a0Minecraft,\u00a0explained You can breed Armadillos in\u00a0Minecraft\u00a0by\u00a0feeding Spider Eyes to two adult Armadillos. As soon as you feed them both Spider Eyes, they will move close to one another, love hearts will appear over their heads, and a baby Armadillo will spawn. It may sound easy, but approaching Armadillos in\u00a0Minecraft\u00a0requires a bit of finesse. Armadillos will roll up into balls or, well, blocks if they detect danger. So, you must approach cautiously and only by walking. They will roll up if you sprint, use a mount or vehicle, or are Undead. Or if you've already attacked them, which is understandable. But as long as you approach slowly, you can feed them in their unrolled state. Like all mobs, Armadillos have a favorite food needed for breeding, and that food is Spider Eyes, which you have a one-in-three chance of getting by killing a spider or cave spider. This means you may need to kill around six spiders just to get the two Spider Eyes required to breed the two adult Armadillos. If you get more Spider Eyes, you can\u00a0feed them to a baby Armadillo to make it grow faster. Armadillos Minecraft drops One of the exciting things about Armadillos is they will drop Scute periodically or if you happen to brush them. This\u00a0Armadillo drop can then be used to craft Wolf Armor for\u00a0your wolf. Essentially, the more Armadillos you have, the more Scute you can get and use to craft Wolf Armor for your new furry companions.\u00a0 So, if you simply want to be surrounded by a horde of Armadillos or have limitless Wolf Armor, this is what you need to know about breeding Armadillos in\u00a0Minecraft.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/armadillo-breeding-minecraft.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1208275"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2158"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1208275"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1208275\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1208283,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1208275\/revisions\/1208283"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1208277"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1208275"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1208275"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1208275"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1208275"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1208275"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1208275"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1208275"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
