Breeding

[edit | edit source]

Slimeballs can be used to breed frogs and reduce the remaining growth duration of tadpoles by 10%. Both mobs also follow a player holding a slimeball.

Mob interaction

[edit | edit source]

Slimeballs can be fed to small sulfur cubes to speed up their growth, in which they become a large sulfur cube. While holding a slimeball, small sulfur cubes will be attracted towards the player.

Videos

[edit | edit source]
Note: This video is outdated, as slimeballs can now also be used to craft slime blocks, breed frogs, and can now be obtained from baby pandas and wandering traders.
