Axolotls are amphibian and aquatic mobs in Minecraft that you can tame and breed. They are cute and quite handy while dealing with aquatic enemies. So it’s natural for you to want them. They come in five colors i.e. Pink (Leucistic), Brown, Gold, Cyan, and Blue. Blue Axolotls do not spawn naturally and there is a minuscule chance of getting them through breeding. That makes them all the more desirable. In this article, we will tell you how to summon Blue Axolotls in Minecraft.

How to Summon a Blue Axolotl in Minecraft

Blue Axolotl is the rarest of all the Axolotls available in the game. There are only two ways you can get a Blue Axolotl.

Using a Console Command

Now if you are looking for an easy way to have Blue Axolotl as your pet then you can use the Console Command in Minecraft’s Java and Bedrock versions. You have to make sure that cheats are enabled in your game.

For Java Version:

  • Command – /summon minecraft:axolotl ~ ~ ~ {Variant:4}

To activate cheats:

  • Go to your Menu.
  • Click on the ‘Open To LAN’ option and you will see the ‘Allow Cheats’ option.
  • Turn it on and click on Start LAN World.

For Bedrock Version:

  • Command – /summon axolotl ~ ~ ~ minecraft:entity_born

To activate cheats in the Bedrock version:

  • Open Menu
  • Go to Settings and click on Game
  • Scroll down the right screen till you come across ‘Activate Cheats’
  • Click on the slider and it should turn green

This is how you can easily summon a Blue Axolotl in Minecraft. Make sure you are near a waterbody because Axolotls cannot survive for long on land.

Breeding Axolotl

Another way to get a Blue Axolotl is by breeding Axolotls. Now, this method is tricky since there is a 1/1200 chance of getting a Blue Axolotl. But if you don’t want to cheat then you will need a lot of patience. To Breed Axolotls:

  • Find a warm ocean biome with a huge supply of tropical fish
  • Fill up these tropical fishes in your buckets
  • You will need two buckets of fish to breed two Axolotls
  • Build a pool or pools near the ocean where the Axolotls can breed
  • Make sure they are wide enough to get in and tall enough that they cannot escape
  • Start breeding them till you get a Blue Axolotl.
