Cow


Behavior

Cows tend to walk around slowly and aimlessly, mooing and breathing occasionally. They will avoid walking off cliffs high enough to cause fall damage. Like other passive mobs, they will panic and randomly run around if you hit them.

Trivia

  • Cows in the PC Gamer demo of Minecraft are branded with a `PCG` logo on their side.
  • In Survival Multiplayer, clicking anywhere on the cow with a bucket will fill it with milk, but only at the maximum distance at which you can use the bucket.
  • As of Beta 1.3_01, the pink of the cow`s ear may also be milked.
  • In 1.8 cows seem to be less common than other passive mobs. This may be due to the fact that since 1.8 cows give an abundance of resources including beef, leather and milk whereas other passive mobs give less.
  • It takes one full Minecraft day or 20 minutes for calves to become fully mature cows.
  • In 1.4, the cow`s sounds were changed slightly, such as new step sounds and idle sounds.
  • If a Player kills a cow and gets its leather, the achievement "Cow tipper" will be unlocked.
    • However, horse leather also works for the achievement.
  • In Minecraft, all cows are female because in real life, only female cows can be milked; however, all cows can still breed and have offspring.

Trivia

  • Cows resemble Norwegian red cattle.
  • Cows in the PC Gamer Minecraft Demo are branded with a `PCG` logo on their side.
  • Notch stated in a tweet that all ⃢₀ₜbreedable⃢₀₝ peaceful mobs displayed traits of both genders and could breed with any other individual of their species. This applies to cows, since they have horns and give milk (although female cows have horns)

Spawning

Cows are 1.4 blocks tall.

Baby cows are 0.7 blocks tall.

Natural generation

Cows spawn in herds of 4 on top of opaque blocks with at least 2 blocks of space above them, at a light level of 9 or higher. They mostly spawn in herds while the world is first generating; although if there are no passive mobs in loaded chunks, they can spawn after world generation in normal spawning cycles.

Baby cow

A calf compared to an adult cow.

If cows are given wheat, their love mode will be triggered, and they will pair off to create calves, which may grant the player a small amount of experience. The parent cows will then have a cooldown of 5 minutes before they can breed again.

The growth of baby cows can be slowly accelerated using wheat. Each use takes 10% off the remaining time to grow up.

    Uses

    When killed, a cow drops up to 2 leather, as well as up to 3 raw beef. If the cow dies while on fire, steak will be dropped instead of beef. A cow can be milked by right clicking with an empty bucket. Due to the fact that cows can be bred an unlimited number of times using renewable wheat, all of the cow`s products are renewable.

    Behavior

    Cows roam the Overworld in herds of 3⃢₀ₓ8, although they sometimes roam alone after being from their pack and can be observed jumping up slight inclines and falling to their deaths from tall cliffs and overhangs. Cows often spawn in snowy and plains biomes. Cows will make no attempt to stay out of water, and will bob up and down to stay afloat. They will flee when attacked and tend to walk around, lowing (mooing), like most passive mobs.

    Calf

    Location: Breed a pair of adult cows (give wheat)

    view ⃢₀⋘ talk

    Calves are the offspring of two adult cows. In order to breed cows, you must give them each one a portion of wheat. There will be many red hearts around each of the cows (this being called "Love Mode"). After entering Love Mode, a small calf will appear near the parents. Like adult cows, these calves can be milked, despite their immaturity. Like other baby animals, Calves do not drop any items when killed.
