Donkeys are a passive mob primarily used for transportation. As they are considered one of the fastest animals in Minecraft, they are also known to drop leather upon death. In this guide, we'll cover the process of breeding Donkeys and will detail the food and items you'll need in order to breed these handy mobs successfully.

How to Breed Donkeys in Minecraft

To breed a Donkey in Minecraft, you'll first need to have it tamed. Once you've done that, make sure the donkeys are in an animal farm, so they can't run away.

Once you have the donkeys in a safe location, make sure to feed the donkey a Golden Apple or Golden Carrots so the donkey can enter Love Mode.

Although apples are a little harder to come by and Golden Apples are even rarer, and better used before a big fight, golden carrots are the safest bet. Carrots can be commonly found in villages. To make a golden carrot, go to a crafting table, put the carrot in the middle and then surround it with gold nuggets.

Once you have the right food, feed it to both donkeys, and the donkeys will enter Love Mode. A baby will spawn within a few seconds.
