Frequently asked questions

How do I get my first critter?
Plant a crop and wait for it to fully grow—most crops have an 8% chance to transform into a critter when mature. If you want to guarantee a critter, plant on Soul Farmland, which has a 40% spawn rate instead. You can also use a Lost Soul item to tame wild critters you find.
What's the difference between tame and wild critters?
Wild critters are unpredictable and some (like Nether Wart Critters) are dangerous—they may explode or attack your crops. Tamed critters follow your commands, work safely on your farm, and won't destroy your plants. Use a Lost Soul or Farmer's Treat to tame wild critters.
How do I make a critter stop working or move it somewhere else?
Tamed critters will follow you if you hold their corresponding crop item and move away from them. To relocate a critter permanently, lead it to your new farm location while holding the crop item, then place it down by right-clicking with the crop.
Which critter should I use to clean up my farm?
The Wheat Critter breaks weeds and dead bushes automatically, making it the best choice for farm maintenance. Pair it with a Carrot Critter or Potato Critter to prepare soil, and your farm will stay clean and ready for planting.
Can I use Cocoa Critters to harvest multiple crop types?
Cocoa Critters harvest any mature crops nearby and store up to 5 items in their inventory. They'll deposit harvested items into hoppers automatically, making them ideal for mixed-crop farms, though you may need multiple Cocoa Critters for large areas.
What does Farmer's Treat do?
Farmer's Treat heals injured critters and instantly resets their work cooldown, letting them act again immediately. It's useful for speeding up farm operations or keeping critters healthy during intensive farming sessions.
Are Poisonous Potato Critters worth taming?
No—Poisonous Potato Critters cannot be tamed and will poison nearby entities and destroy crops and turtle eggs. It's best to prevent them from spawning or remove them if they appear on your farm.
How do I speed up crop growth on my farm?
Use Melon Critters, which water nearby crops and accelerate their growth. Combine multiple Melon Critters in one area for faster results, or pair them with other critters like Pumpkin Critters for a fully automated growing system.
Can critters attack mobs or defend my farm?
Yes—Pumpkin Critters attack enemies with ranged attacks and can plant crops using Seed Balls, while Pitcher Critters eat mobs. These critters provide both offensive defense and farming automation, though they require management to avoid chaos.
Why do my critters keep dying or disappearing?
Critters can be killed by hostile mobs, fall damage, or suffocation. Keep them in well-lit, protected areas and use Farmer's Treat to heal them if they take damage. If a critter vanishes, it may have despawned—tamed critters are more stable than wild ones.
