Axolotls are passive aquatic amphibian mobs.

Spawning

Axolotls do not spawn naturally in the world, being only available from buckets or spawn eggs in the Creative inventory.

Variants

Axolotls come in five different varieties: cyan, gold, lucy (pink), wild (brown), and blue. The first four varieties are equally common, while the blue variety is rarer. Specifically, the blue variant has a ¹⁄₁₂₀₀ (~0.083%) chance, giving the common varieties a ¹¹⁹⁹⁄₄₈₀₀ (~24.98%) chance individually.

Axolotls picked up and re-spawned with a bucket will not preserve their color. Baby axolotls picked up and re-spawned with a bucket will not preserve their growth stage and turn into an adult stage.

Behavior

Axolotls are passive to players. Axolotls are intended to give Regeneration and remove Mining Fatigue when a player kills a mob that an axolotl is in combat with; however, this currently does not work.

Axolotls are always hostile to fish and squid and attack these mobs on sight. Axolotls will only attack drowned and guardians when tempted with tropical fish by a player. Drowned and guardians will always attack axolotls on sight.

As axolotls are aquatic mobs, they take extra damage from tridents with the Impaling enchantment.

If an axolotl takes damage, it may pretend to be dead, dropping to the ground for 200 game ticks (10 seconds) and gaining the Regeneration I effect if in water. Monsters will ignore recovering axolotls. For an axolotl to play dead, the damage must not be from drying out on land, and there is a random ²⁄₃ chance for the axolotl to not play dead. In addition, if either a random integer from 0–2 (inclusive) is less than the amount of incoming damage, or the axolotl's health before the damage is dealt is less than 50% of its maximum health, it then plays dead. Internally, they will not attempt to play dead if the damage will kill them, though this has no effect since the axolotl will die either way.

On land, axolotls try to move to the nearest water source because they die outside of water after 6000 game ticks (5 minutes). Axolotls do not die on land if the weather is rain or thunder.

Axolotls can be attached to leads.

Breeding

Main article: Breeding

Adult axolotls can be led and bred with tropical fish or buckets of tropical fish. After breeding, a baby axolotl spawns and the parents cannot breed again for 5 minutes and 1–7 experience is spawned. The baby axolotl has a ¹⁄₁₂₀₀ chance to be the rare blue variant; otherwise, one of the parents' variants will be selected at random.

This is accomplished by {{Control|using}} a bowl on a mooshroom. The bowl gets replaced by the mushroom stew item. There is no cooldown for doing so. If a stack of more than one bowl is used on a mooshroom, only one bowl is consumed, and the mushroom stew goes into an empty inventory slot, or is dropped if the player's inventory is full. === Crafting === {{Crafting |Red Mushroom |Brown Mushroom |Bowl |Output= Mushroom Stew |type= Foodstuff }} == Usage == === Food === {{see also|Tutorials/Hunger management|title1=Hunger management}} To eat mushroom stew, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|6}} [[hunger]] and 7.2 hunger [[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]].
