Today I am going to talk about farming in Minecraft. One of my friends who just started getting into Minecraft said that she had a hard time with some different farming techniques so today I am going to help you guys out with that kind of stuff. When you farm on Minecraft there is a lot of variations that you can do to make a totally different farm.
The main way I make my farm is with a lot of animals because they can be really important. Here is a list of a couple of farm animals that you should keep an eye out for.
Cows are pretty much the best farming animal because they are used for so many things. First they will give you milk whenever you want. You just need to left click on it with a bucket and then the bucket will be filled with milk. And you can get leather and beef when you kill the cow. Also to get baby cows you need to give 2 grown up cows wheat and then they will make a baby cow.
Chickens are another good farmhouse staple. These are one of the most common animals. I have found them in almost all biomes that I have settled down in. When you first get them it can take you awhile to get a good flock going but once once you do you will never want to go without chickens again. I suggest that you actually have 2 chicken pits. One that is filled with chickens that never get slaughtered. The reason you want to have this pit is to get eggs. The other one you can chuck all of your unwanted eggs into and when they grow up you can kill them to get chicken meat and feathers. Another way to get chickens is to breed them together with seeds.

Today I am going to talk about potions. Potions can be helpful if you know what you are doing. I only recently learned how to make potions and started to use them in Minecraft. If you want to start using potions you are going to need to be pretty far in the game. I suggest you try making potions after you have had a couple of successful trips in the Nether
The main thing that you need to have before starting to make any potions is a brewing stand. These can only be made once you have been in the Nether for some time as they require a blaze rod which you can only get from killing a blaze. You can only find blazes in Nether fortresses which can be a pain to find and are really hard to get through if you are not a super good fighter. I had to go through it like ten times before I could come home in one piece. The way to make a brewing stand is one blaze rod in the middle middle and and cobblestone across the bottom of the crafting interface. In the 1.10 update they made it so that the brewing stand has to have blaze powder in it to run.
Most of the ingredients that are used in brewing are really hard to get but there are a couple that are pretty common. The first thing that you have to do is get a bottle of water and put it in the brewing stand next you need to get nether wart. You can find it in the nether fortress and it is pretty easy to harvest. You will need to grow more of it so bring back some soul sand and you can start up a nether wart farm. Once you have brewed your nether wart into your water try out different ingredients to try to find all the potions you can.

This is a post all about how to decorate your sweet Minecraft fortress. I suggest you get pretty far into the game before you start thinking about decorating. Because a lot of decorating tips can use a lot of resources. Make sure you have a big enough place to finish your decorations before you start.
The Library
I think that every place should have a good library or else you will have nothing to do. And a library is useful because if you want to enchant anything you will need a library(to learn more about enchanting click here). But I think you should have a bigger library than just what is necessary to enchant items because that isn’t enough room for books. And you can make some really cool libraries if you have enough space.
A Few Flowers
What do you see in every magazine about home decor. Flowers. I like using flowers in my designs because they are easy. I once just covered a roof in flowers and the impact was huge. The best way to display flowers in your home is a flower pot. A flower pot is a piece of clay in the bottom middle and in the middle left and right in the crafting table. Then you can just stick in a flower to match the design and you are good to go.
A Picture
This is one of the best items to use if you don’t want to spend a ton of time on your decor it will go on any wall and looks really pretty with any color. To make a picture put a piece of wool in the center and sticks in every other spot on the crafting table. When you place it there will be a random picture on it. if you don’t like the picture that you can take it off and put it back on and you will get a different one.
I hope this helps you when you want to redo your Minecraft home.

This post is all about lesser known monsters. These are monsters that you might not have seen before because they are pretty rare, The one that I have seen the most is the spider jockey but there are quite a few of them. And I will share my knowledge with you.
The Spider Jockey is only found in the Overworld and it is not found often. At the most you only find one a night over all of a world. A Spider Jockey is a Skeleton sitting on a Spider. A Spider Jockey is a very formidable enemies to face because the Skeleton will shoot at you and the Spider will climb up walls at you. To make them even worse they have the health of a Spider and a Skeleton combined. And a Spider Jockey won’t burn up in the sun because of the Spiders immunity to the sun.
The Chicken Jockey I have only seen once but it looks pretty funny when you see it. You can have a baby zombie or a pig man on your chicken zombie. The chicken will run through 1 block high areas but if the block above them isn’t translucent the zombie will suffocate. The chicken will make it so that they won’t get fall damage. The chicken will not lay eggs. The chicken will follow seeds but can’t eat them. The Chicken Jockey can equip items and pick them up.
There is a Skeleton horse and a Zombie horse that are almost the same as a horse but with a couple key differences. When you touch them you will get hurt and you can’t tame them.
I hope that this post has helped you learn what to do when you encounter one of Minecraft’s strange ones. Let me know what you want to learn next in the comments.

Today I am going to talk about Spiderman. He is one of my favorite superheroes and he is really cool too. There are a lot of spider stuff in Minecraft and today I am going to teach you all about them. Spiderman is one avenger that is kind of easy to be like in Minecraft. I mean you can’t shoot webs out of your gloves and I don’t know how to get a spider sense on Minecraft but we can trap monsters in webs and look at how the spider works to teach you how to survive like a spider.
Webs
I like using webs in traps but they are a little hard to get. You will only see spider webs spawned naturally in abandoned mine shafts. To get a web you need to right click on it with shears. Or you can right click on it with a sword and you will get one string. One time I have gotten two 64 of string from one time going into a abandoned mine shaft.
Spiders
This are tricky little monsters that can be very dangerous if you don’t know what you are doing. Spiders can come out in the morning but they are less deadly in the morning. Spiders are passive in the day unless you look right at them within 30 blocks.
Spiders can climb up walls and will jump on you if they can. I suggest when you are fighting anything but especially spiders, take the upper ground. That way a spider can’t jump down on you. Be careful that spiders can’t get onto your roof when you don’t want them to. Because spiders can climb up walls like Spiderman. If you have an overhang or a spot that is made of fence all the way round a spider can never get onto your roof.
Cave Spiders
These behave like spiders but have a couple of unique characteristics.
They are poisonous when you touch them
They are smaller than regular spiders
They spawn in mineshafts
They are blue
I hope that this helps you on your quest to become an Avenger. Let me know on tips and tricks you guys have with Minecraft.
Can you believe that it is the last week in July already? This year is just flying by!!!
