Breeding

Requirements

Most Villager tech requires many villagers to properly function, and Villagers do not naturally re-spawn in the world. Therefore, Breeding Villagers is an important field to understand in order to create many Villagers to use for your various contraptions.

Villagers have 3 requirements to breed baby Villagers:

Outfits

Villagers can have different outfits depending on what Biome they were born in. When a baby Villager is born the outfit it dawns will be determined by the biome, and there is no association with the outfits the parents currently wear. As an example, if a Savanna Villager and a Desert Villager breed in a Tundra, a Tundra baby Villager will be born. 

Knowing what biome(s) is linked to each outfit allows you to know where to find or create Villagers of a specific type. This is useful because outfits can determine certain trades offers. See Buying and Selling Resources for more info.

There are 7 types of outfits a Villager can have:
