SKELETON BONE FARMING!

___

Bones are one essential resource in #luanti(minetest); you make bone meals with them, which helps your crops and plants grow faster, if not instantly, rather than waiting several days for them to grow. Bones are also used to make bone blocks which are very adorable for decorations and if you wish to build a fancy white house made up of bones and most importantly, bones are used to tame wolves which is my favorite part. But all of these, getting bones may be a very difficult task as it’s primarily dropped by skeletons when they get killed or you could find some in chests under caves. This is also difficult because you will need to conquer a lot of monsters before reaching the chest. So what other way can the bones be best obtained? That is, by creating a farm, and how does that happen? ![Screenshot_20250222-114155~2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/protokkol/Eo45DRV63XnTiserY7ffj2fdZdZEuFtodtedqCZfRnVK6xTmw5nikc9oodcsSDWdpMG.png) ___
# REQUIREMENTS 1. Generator! ![Screenshot_20250222-082229~2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/protokkol/Eo6DhD2ZAQRVRoada9Ppes2NYGLHwYr1MQwtDwvw3p2a3GHNbMUunaQ4n6nDFuJNNYJ.png) Firstly, you need a skeleton spawn generator; this can only be gotten in caves underground or on hilltops when you get this generator, this is where you’re going to establish the farm because you can’t move the generator unless you have an enchanted slick tool to do so. Secondly, if you wish to make it an automatic farm then you’ll need some more devices like - Water source - Fire blocks - Hooper - Chests - Trap doors - Piston block ___
**Water source:** this is to help control the skeletons and prevent them from having a free will movement when they begin to spawn, as well as move the drops from the skeletons to a specific direction. ![Screenshot_20250222-092805~2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/protokkol/Eo1wpgBoiZHadiMzHcLuC5Gsrhcb3kYzucLrmVYvaViQJ4a2UDKo8e5BWZs9auyzXDR.png) ___
**Fire blocks:** these blocks deal damage to your feet. Placing them at the end of the water moves the skeletons onto these blocks which deals damage to them until they are killed. ![Screenshot_20250222-112122~2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/protokkol/Eo1xQXZdz5Et9xscpDVYC2wBZ7AkAhePSucF4EAetvXCtRUDbYxHFKG8THDKL472mcV.png) ___
**Hooper:** these items help collect items from above and either store them onto themselves automatically or move them inside a chest that is placed under it. This will help you collect the bones and items dropped by the dead skeletons stored in a chest automatically. ![Screenshot_20250222-112954~2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/protokkol/Eo6CidtTojqhEfGZdSgmwAS8VcYP4ru685bJQp6FJ1RSqygjy3VQsckeisVxt15jjBh.png) ___
**Trap doors:** these doors are positioned in such a way that helps prevent the skeletons from leaving the spawn area, more like a boundary between you and them so you don’t get into trouble or rage while still giving you control over the farm without being outrun by the skeleton. ![Screenshot_20250222-085552~2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/protokkol/Eo1xScWKXd6t1DvYWmu1dXsoR62mu7haXc3NkVdPjGp2JHYGvoA8vd4tUJfhqdMR8Dr.png) ___
**Piston blocks:** this device helps push a block +1 unit when powered by red stone power, and its operation is controlled by a lever or a switch. In this case, I used it to either close or open up the water that pushes the skeletons forward by triggering a simple switch. ![Screenshot_20250222-101438~2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/protokkol/Eo1xRc3Ep6ZTJgsfJ4u7fG4Lsk4kEhMHCNKMrzjUS9Xq2Eq5BULqLiKASkMhVKcGmdN.png) This is useful because when the spawn generator is exposed to flowing water for too long, you may lose the generator, so always turn the water off and allow the skeletons to wander into the fire blocks by themselves. ![Screenshot_20250222-102018~2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/protokkol/Eo45LWjz2swGnUBWGfxhpGPf1wYLxZ8TdUN7BSXth3VF2cEsC757v1zTgWHYudCee7o.png) ![Screenshot_20250222-102854~2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/protokkol/Eo45qofSHb9H9BZA53dEQ5eNb7X1S5bAmGfJ37JVANVbW8Wf55bcs3uEwrWYiN4ikfR.png) ___
This clip attached to this post shows a quick process on how I got to set this skeleton farm on the server carried out on a mobile device, I play Luanti most of the time on my mobile because I find it very easy and handy unless I want to stream the game or need a bigger monitor, I can then switch to my pc. If you enjoy luanti(minetest), or #Minecraft games then you should join us on the #neoxian city server via [this article](https://peakd.com/hive-140217/@protokkol/luanti-formerly-minetest-or-the-neoxian-city-server) which is a comprehensive guide on all you need to know and where start! All images used are screenshots from game!
