Interested in making your favorite Minecraft village larger? The only way to do this (without cheats) is to make your villagers start breeding. That helps you build out a village and can eventually lead to more trading opportunities and other advantages.
However, breeding Minecraft villagers isn’t always easy. Circumstances need to be just right, which means you have some work to do if you really want to expand a particular village. Here’s everything you need to encourage villager romance and get some families started.

Step 2: Make sure you have at least two villagers. Again, you can boat or cart them into the village if you have to.
Step 3: Move your villagers close together. They really need to be in the same building to breed. This isn’t always easy, because villagers don’t always naturally cohabitate. You can simply move two of them close and then build a building around them if you want, or find an existing structure with enough room in it and move your villagers into it.
Step 4: Start making some beds. We have a whole guide on how to do it! The key for breeding villagers is to create enough beds for every villager plus one. Villagers generally won’t breed unless there is an extra bed available for the child. Place the beds, including the extra one, near your villagers.
Step 5: If possible, trade with your villagers to make sure they are active and functioning properly. Now, you’ll need to get them in the mood. Villagers have a specific mating mode they go into, and one of the best ways to encourage it is to give them food — a fair amount of food, too. You must feed each villager in your couple one of the following:
3 bread
12 carrots
12 potatoes
12 beetroots
Lob the food into your villagers once you…
