Mooshrooms are mushroom-covered variants of cows that are exclusive to Minecraft's rare mushroom fields biome. They come in two colours: red and brown. To spawn a mooshroom in Minecraft, you can use the /summon mooshroom command, specifying the desired coordinates and properties for the mooshroom. Alternatively, you can breed two red mooshrooms or two brown mooshrooms together, which have a small chance of spawning a brown or red baby mooshroom, respectively.

What You'll Learn
Use the /summon mooshroom command
To spawn a mooshroom in Minecraft, you can use the /summon mooshroom command. This command has the following syntax:
/summon mooshroom [x] [y] [z]
The x, y, and z values are optional and represent the coordinates where you want the mooshroom to spawn. If you don't specify these values, the mooshroom will spawn at your current location.
You can also include additional arguments to further customize your mooshroom:
- SpawnPos: Specifies the spawn position of the mooshroom using x, y, and z coordinates.
- SpawnEvent: Specifies the name of a game event associated with the mooshroom's spawning.
- NameTag: Allows you to assign a custom name to the mooshroom, which will appear above it as a nametag.
- LookAtEntity: Specifies the name of a player or target selector that the mooshroom will face when spawned.
- LookAtPosition: Specifies a set of x, y, and z coordinates that the mooshroom will face when spawned.
- XRot and yRot: Determines the x-rotation and y-rotation of the mooshroom's facing direction in degrees.
- /summon mooshroom: Spawns a red mooshroom at your current location.
- /summon mooshroom ~ ~ ~: Spawns a red mooshroom at the specified coordinates.
- /summon mooshroom ~ ~ ~ {Type:brown}: Spawns a brown mooshroom at your current location.
- /summon mooshroom ~ ~ ~ {CustomName:"\"Mooney\""}: Spawns a red mooshroom named "Mooney" at the specified coordinates.
- /summon mooshroom ~ ~ ~ {Age:-1200}: Spawns a baby mooshroom calf that will grow up in 60 seconds.

Specify the spawn location
To specify the spawn location of a mushroom cow, also known as a mooshroom, in Minecraft, you can use the /summon command. Here is the basic syntax for summoning a mooshroom:
/summon mooshroom [spawnPos]
The [spawnPos] tag is optional and refers to the specific x, y, and z coordinates where you want the mooshroom to spawn. If no coordinates are provided, the mooshroom will spawn at your current location.
For example, if you want to spawn a mooshroom at specific coordinates, your command might look like this:
/summon mooshroom 10 64 50
This would summon a mooshroom at the specified coordinates of 10 for x, 64 for y, and 50 for z. You can adjust the coordinates as needed to specify the exact spawn location for your mooshroom.
Additionally, you can also specify whether you want a baby mooshroom by using the Age tag. For example:
/summon mooshroom ~ ~ ~ {Age:-25000}
This command will spawn a baby mooshroom at your current location. You can also combine this with specific coordinates, such as:
/summon mooshroom 10 64 50 {Age:-25000}
This will spawn a baby mooshroom at the specified coordinates.

Choose the colour of the mooshroom
There are two colours of mooshroom in Minecraft: red and brown. Red mooshrooms spawn in herds of 4-8 in mushroom field biomes when the light level is 9 or higher and on mycelium. They do not spawn in any other biome. Red mooshrooms can also be created by breeding two red mooshrooms together, which has a 5% chance of spawning a baby red mooshroom. Alternatively, a lightning strike on a brown mooshroom will transform it into a red mooshroom.
Brown mooshrooms never spawn naturally. They can be created by breeding two brown mooshrooms together, which has a 5% chance of spawning a baby brown mooshroom. Alternatively, a lightning strike on a red mooshroom will transform it into a brown mooshroom.
When using the /summon command to spawn a mooshroom, you can specify the colour by using the Type Nbt tag. To spawn a brown mooshroom, use the command:
/summon minecraft:mooshroom ~ ~ ~ {Type:brown}
To spawn a red mooshroom, use the command:
/summon minecraft:mooshroom ~ ~ ~ {Type:red}

Name the mooshroom
Mooshrooms are mushroom-covered variants of cows that are found in the rare mushroom fields biome. They come in red and brown variants, with the brown variant occurring when a red mooshroom is struck by lightning. They can be named using a name tag, which will appear as a nametag above the mooshroom.
- Fun Guy: A play on the word "fungus", which is what mooshrooms are covered in.
- Shroomy: A cute and playful name derived from "mushroom".
- Cow-abella: A fun name combining "cow" and "bella", meaning beautiful in Italian.
- Moo-shroomy: Emphasizing the mooshroom's unique characteristics, being both a cow and a mushroom.
- Mycena: Named after the genus of mushrooms, Mycena, which includes many species of small mushrooms.
- Bella: Meaning beautiful in Italian, this name highlights the mooshroom's unique and charming appearance.

Use lightning to change its colour
Mooshrooms are mushroom-covered variants of cows that are exclusive to the rare mushroom fields biome. They are similar in behaviour to cows, but they are not the same. They walk around slowly and aimlessly, huffing and mooing occasionally. They also avoid danger such as cliffs, fire, or lava, but make no attempt to stay out of water.
A lightning strike on a mooshroom switches its colour from red to brown, or brown to red. This colour change occurs when the mooshroom is struck by lightning within a 4-block radius. Importantly, mooshrooms do not take damage from lightning during this transformation.
Red mooshrooms can spawn in mushroom fields biomes in herds of 4-8 when the light level is 9 or higher and on mycelium. They do not naturally spawn in any other biome. Brown mooshrooms, on the other hand, never spawn naturally.
