Eating mushrooms?
Is it true that pigs eat mushrooms? If so, the info in mushrooms should be updated. Do they eat both brown and red spotted mushrooms? --DrPhil 20:26, 5 November 2010 (CDT)
 * No, they dont eat mushrooms! They used to give mushrooms when killed, and, what do you think of the new pig image? MoonBeans 22:38, 27 November 2010 (CST)

I am 100% sure they ate mushrooms in Survival Test. I do not want to re-add this, however, until it has been further discussed. IKaleb 02:08, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Spawn Preventing
Is there a way to prevent friendly spawn while still preventing aggressive spawns? I'm trying to farm and every time I come back the ground is trampled and I have a pig or some chickens running around. --Zenubis 20:48, 22 January 2011
 * Fence off the area and replace all grass with something else. – ultradude25  ( T at 04:25, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Unkillable pig O.O
I turn a zombie spawner into a pig spawner... but does someone know why I can't kill them? Aren't they suppose to be like normal pigs?
 * On SMP pigs from pig spawner cannot be killed as they are client side. – minepro97  ( T at 04:25, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Always drop 2 chops when killed by fire?
When i set pigs on fire with a fire-starter it dropped 2 pork chops each time for all 8 pigs i tried. Can someone confirm that this is always true.

No, you just got extremely lucky on your spawning. It is likely that it will drop 2 pork, but not always. Bubblebust 16:46, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Invincible Pigs on MP
all pigs on Multiplayer are invincible. there is 1 exception, Craftbukkit servers. on a craftukkit server you can kill pigs.


 * Only PIG SPAWNER pigs are invincible in SMP all other oigs should be killable unless there is lots of lag in which you can try and hit where you think they are going to be.... – minepro97  ( T at 00:42, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Cooked Porkchop
Ben trying to get the When pigs fly achievement, but that always puts me right next to my netherack, so they keep dying by fire. but when they do die, they drop a cooked porkchop? That would make it seem far more efficient to burn them to death rather than hit them.

triangle1: what are you trying to say? to me it seems your making a statement, but there is a question mark wich implies you'r asking a question, and you finnish by sounding like your making a suggestion. please explain.

Also i don't even understand the main idea behind your writing, you start off by saying you are doing the flying pig achievment but then STATE pigs DO drop a cooked porkchop on death by fire, SUGGEST if so it WOULD be more efficient.

this text seems very conveluted and confusing, please clarrify


 * Yes they do drop a cooked porkchop when killed by fire or while on fire. Yes this is much more efficiant and you never have to cook a porchop again (give raw pork to your wolves and kill pigs by flint & steel to get cooked pork). – minepro97  ( T at 00:42, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

3 drops?
I never got 3 drops from Pigs, Cows and Chickens... Why? Both Singleplayer and Multiplayer, Playing on Peaceful and Easy. C ali nou - talk × contribs » 13:26, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

Lit Inventory Bar
I was on a minecraft server (PCG server) and I went to the nether.There was a pig spawner there with grass around(spawned in),and there was enough light,so a couple of pigs spawned.When I looked at a pig,my invertory bar(the one at the bottom of the screen) lit up,as if I had been looking at a zombie pigman.There were no zombie pigmen around.I tried a few times and the results were the same. It seems to occur on singleplayer as well.When I spawned some pigs in the nether and faced them,my invertory bar lit up again. When I spawned a zombie pigman in the overworld and faced them,my inventory bar did NOT light up. I know pigs turn into zomebie pigmen when struck by lightning,but are they the same?Does pig = zombie pigman? Can anyone comfirm/explain this?Thanks.I know its not a bug,(pigs don't ordinarily spawn in the nether) but I'm just curious. Wilsonang123 09:03, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
