Used this system many times, but for some reason they won't breed. Gave them like half a stack of bread but so far nothing. Turned mob griefing back on so they'll like even pick up the bread and all. Did mechanics change or am I doing something wrong?

    They both need a job, do you see that one on the left with the green clothes? That’s a nitwit villager which can’t get jobs. And you need to be far away from a village I believe

  2. Need access to the beds, might be not be enough beds in the area, gotta give them food. Taters, carrots, beats, bread

  3. Replace the oak slabs with trapdoors.

    Both normal blocks and trapdoors will physically prevent them from getting through, but trapdoors will still allow them to pathfind through, while other blocks with collisions will not.
    So right now, they can’t pathfind to the beds.

  4. half a stack might not be enough, they have their own invisible inventory. Keep feeding them until they stop picking up food. I went through like 2 stacks of bread and then they started smashing

  5. Heres a couple ideas:

    – Close the trap doors and remove the slabs

    – make the villager chamber bigger and put the beds in there where they can access them

    – make the wall taller and add a ceiling so the villagers feel safe
