Pigs Only Eat This Insane Diet in Minecraft—Are You Feeding Them Wrong? - Silent Sales Machine

Understanding the Context

What Exactly Are Pigs Eating in Minecraft?

In vanilla Minecraft, pigs eat raw potatoes, carrots, beetroots, and other root vegetables—but here’s the twist: experimental players and modded servers have discovered a newly hyper-efficient feed that drastically improves pig consumption speed, growth rate, and even health. This unusual diet consists solely of:

• Insane Egg Roux
  
• Pumpkin Oats
  
• Occasionally: Bananas (in bulk)

Yes—Egg Roux, a cooking material crafted from three raw egg whites and one cooked roux (made from roasted wheat), paired with hulled pumpkin oats, creates a nutrient bomb uniquely appealing to pigs.

Key Insights

Why This Diet Is Called “Insane” (and Smarter)

Feeding pigs Egg Roux + Pumpkin Oats is considered “insane” by casual standards because it’s not your typical Minecraft recipe. But gamers who’ve tried it swear by major improvements:

• Faster pork chop production: Pigs grow twice as fast compared to standard feeding methods.
  
• Higher necrotic immune resistance: Pigs raised on this diet are less prone to hog cholera and corruption.
  
• Improved reproduction rates: Breeding pigs on this diet results in larger litters and stronger piglets.
  
• Groundhog-like smarts? While pigs don’t think like this, resource efficiency rivals some autonomous farming systems.

Final Thoughts

How Do You Prepare the Diet?

Preparing this “insane” feed is simple:

Ingredients:

• 3 Raw Eggs (cooked into roux)
  
• 1 Pumpkin Oats (from pumpkin plus rolled oats)
  (Optional but effective: Break into smaller portions for multiple pigs)

How to make Egg Roux:

1. Cook wheat in a furnace to produce robin’s roux.
   
2. Combine with beaten raw egg into a thick paste.
   
3. Add chopped pumpkin and oats for flavor and texture.
   
4. Let it cool and dry into reachable blocks.

Scatter the Egg Roux blocks near pig pens—pigs show voracious, nearly obsessive interest.
