Manage Unexpected Milk Bucket Drops from Cows

What to Expect

When milking cows with the mod active, you have a chance to receive water buckets or lava buckets instead of milk. This adds unpredictability to dairy farming.

Preparation

Bring extra empty buckets when milking cows—you'll need them to collect whatever the cow produces. Keep a safe distance from lava buckets to avoid accidental burns.

Practical Farming Tips

Set up a dedicated milking area away from important structures. If a lava bucket drops, it won't damage your base.

Use hoppers and collection systems to automatically gather milk, water, and lava buckets. This reduces the risk of lava spreading.

Keep water nearby for emergency fire suppression if lava buckets become problematic.

Disable if Needed

If unpredictable bucket drops interfere with your farming automation or survival, toggle this feature off in the config while keeping other April Fools mechanics active.
