Minecraft Animal Farm Ideas and Design Inspiration

While all of these ideas have to do with farm animals and upkeeping that side of farming, a lot of these could also be used for farming resources as well to make sure you have a well-rounded farm overall. Some of these are a bit more intricate while others are definitely easy enough for anyone to try. Let’s jump into it!

Bee farm

Our very first idea is a somewhat unorthodox one. This fantastic Bee farm allows players to get honey from the bees. It’s a great design here as it allows for a lot of bees to be housed in it, turning out the most amount of honey as possible. Large open buildings are sure to house many, many bees. Additionally, you could play with this design, opting for an all-glass build so that you always get a good look at what’s going on from the outside.

Full Farm

This little warm animal farm design makes the list because it’s just clean and simple. Though it’s got a great size to it overall, it isn’t as insurmountable a task as some other ideas floating around are. There’s a lot of space for common animals you’d find as well as enough space to have other farming for resources happening at the same time!

Gigantic Farm

Personally, this would be my own first choice when building an animal farm. Having a huge open space to keep all of the animals, plus having it be in the middle of everything else you’re doing is going to make everything easier to get to. Additionally, having storage nearby for these animals is going to be a must if you’re going to be getting eggs from chickens or just need to store your tack supplies for horses. This one takes the cake.

Underground Farm

This underground farm is a great idea because it not only keeps your animals away from dangers while in survival mode, but it makes things more streamlined as you can have them in cubicle stalls such as this. It also makes the aboveground look cleaner overall as well.

Indoor Farm

If you’re looking to have a farm similar to the Gigantic one but don’t want your animals out with the elements, then having them enclosed with an indoor farm would be your best bet. It’s a cute idea and this method gives way to a lot of creativity as you can make multiple levels and corridors for them to roam if you wanted to.

Those are our picks for some animal farm design ideas for inspiration! Hopefully, you either take some of these ideas for yourself or have been inspired to do something wholly unique! We also have some lists of other Minecraft building ideas as well for you to check out!
