About

The Cow Spawner is a spawner block preset to generate cows when placed and activated. It stacks to 64 and can be obtained through the give command, making it useful for quickly setting up mob farms or populating test areas without hunting for spawner blocks in the world.

Use the give command with the full NBT tag to ensure the spawner is correctly configured for cows. Once placed, the spawner will function immediately if the conditions are right, mobs spawn in a radius around the block and require appropriate light and space levels to appear.
