Yes, I'm back with another terrible blog. This time based on animal-based testing, I will try out new features, exploit bugs to the fullest and use redstone terribly. (I will do experiments whenever I have time and new ideas; don't expect them regularly.)Experiment 1 26/November/2011

Welcome to science with sheep. I'm geesegeese, I like performing tests on animals and I hate redstone. I plan to increase the knowledge of Steve-kind and hopefully gain a nobel prize. But first, we need our sheep.

That's not a sheep. That's a pig. We sell those too.


The sheep in question, whom I named 'Dolly' after the first animal to be cloned (a sheep,) has been died cyan to be distinguishable among other sheep. I lure it into captivity with wheat.

This first test may seem cruel to you; I test if animals are also effected by potions, and if they can be effected by more then one at a time. First up is the fire resistance potion, Dolly resinates the same spiral effects that humans do; good start...

Next, I bring out my trusty flint and steel; I use it on Dolly. What happens next is interesting, she runs around like an animal would normally if they were attacked, but she doesn't catch fire or seem to take damage. This is intriguing stuff.

Next up; the slowness and swiftness potions. I use a splash potion of slowness on her, and then ran around with the wheat. As I expected, she slowed. When I used a splash potion of swiftness however, she was unnaturally fast for a sheep. This tells us...

  1. Sheep are effected by swiftness and slowness potions.
  2. Unlike my theory, Dolly didn't go back to normal speed after I used a swiftness potion while she was still in the effects of a slowness potion. I expected the two opposites to cancel each other out, but apparently not.

Well done sheep, well done.

My final experiment for the day, a splash potion of harming. That worked. I immediately gave it many healing potions. We know that works now. Don't we Dolly?

I have an idea for a sheep obstacle course, but in the mean time, do you have any ideas? We got the equipment and we got the sheep.
