But the spawn rate of animals has decreased, and cows and sheep are no longer likely to spawn on your island. Originally, players could craft bookshelves with paper (from sugarcane) and leather (from cows).

Sugarcane doesn’t serve much of a purpose in SkyBlock aside from making sugar for pumpkin pie. Once all dirt blocks become grass blocks, chickens will start to spawn. On this platform, place all your dirt blocks and allow the grass to spread. Chickens can spawn into your world if you make a platform 24 blocks away from where you spend the most time. Sugar is obtained from sugarcane, and chickens lay eggs. Pumpkin pie restores eight hunger points (more than bread) and puts your pumpkins to good use! To craft pumpkin pie, you will need one pumpkin, one sugar, and one egg.

Players can use pumpkins to make pumpkin pie. While pumpkins are not a necessity, it helps to have a little farm. SkyBlock features many challenges, but you aren't required to complete them all.
