Choose Your Farming Location

Decide which loot you want to farm. Different biomes yield different items, so pick a location that matches your goal. For example, farm in the Nether if you want ancient debris, or in a mushroom forest for mycelium-specific drops.

Gather and Breed Sniffers

Find at least two sniffers (villages are the easiest source). Breed them by feeding them torchflower seeds until you have a large group. More sniffers = faster loot generation.

Create a Digging Area

Lead your sniffers to your chosen biome and keep them contained in a pen or enclosure. Make sure the ground is made of the appropriate block type (soul sand, sculk, sand, etc.). Sniffers will naturally dig and search for loot.

Collect and Repeat

Sniffers will drop items as they dig. Collect these regularly. Since loot is weighted by rarity, patience is key for ultra-rare drops. Consider building multiple farms in different biomes to diversify your loot collection.
