The sniffer is a new Minecraft mob added in the 1.20 update. However, the purpose and origin of this mob has confused many players. In this article, we will go over exactly how to find and interact with Minecraft sniffers!
Sniffers in Minecraft slowly crawl through your Minecraft world, sniffing various blocks in search of ancient seeds. If they find anything interesting, they will dig and unearth various loot, such as the torchflower seed.
Because sniffers do not spawn naturally in Minecraft, you must hatch and breed them. To breed a sniffer in Minecraft, you must first find a sniffer egg. These eggs can be located in suspicious sand, which can be found in warm ocean ruins. In order to obtain an egg from a suspicious sand block, you will need to use a brush on the block by hitting right click. Suspicious sand appears similar to regular sand but has a slightly different texture.
Unfortunately, brushing one suspicious sand block does not guarantee that you will find a sniffer egg. Since there is only a 6.7% chance of finding an egg, you may need to brush several suspicious sandblocks before you come across a sniffer egg. To simplify this process, we recommend using the fullbright Minecraft mod, as it will make locating suspicious sand exponentially easier. The fullbright mod makes everything bright in Minecraft, even if you are underwater and away from light sources.
To install the fullbright mod in Minecraft, download and install Badlion Client, which is a mod pack that contains the fullbright Minecraft mod. Once downloaded, you can join your Minecraft world and open the mod menu by pressing shift. Here, you can search for the “fullbright” Minecraft mod.
Once you have obtained a sniffer egg, you can place the egg on top of any blocks, and it will eventually hatch. However, you can place the egg on top of a moss block so it can hatch the fastest.
Once you have two sniffers in your world, you can breed them like any other animal mob, by feeding each of them food. In the sniffer’s case, they require to be feed torchflower seeds, which when feed to both sniffers, will initiate the breeding process. The sniffers will then drop a sniffer egg, which you can place to hatch.
Sniffers in Minecraft will only eat torchflower seeds. These seeds will also allow you to breed when it is fed to two sniffers in close proximity. Torchflower seeds can only be found by the Minecraft sniffer, but once you obtain a torchflower seed, you can farm it like a normal crop.
The sniffer in Minecraft might seem like a silly addition to the game, but there are several useful functions that they perform. First, as mentioned before the sniffer will dig up torchflower seeds and pitcher pods. However, they can dig up dirt, grass blocks, podzol, coarse dirt, rooted dirt, moss blocks, mud, and muddy mangrove roots.
