(There is even a video by a Bedrock YouTuber with >6000 views arguing that witch farms are not worth the effort in Bedrock Edition because of the spawning mechanics.) The fact that players continue to report this shows that past fixes have not been adequate. The issue has never really been fixed. Unfortunately, the bug reports listed above were closed and have not been re-opened despite subsequent comments, and further bug reports complaining of essentially the same thing ( MCPE-40725, MCPE-43171) have been closed and referred to MCPE-21856, the general low spawn rate bug.The changelog for 1.2.13 states “Fixed witches not spawning inside Witch Huts.” I believe respawning witches is the developers intent because there is an old history of bug reports stating that witches were not respawning ( MCPE-23920, MCPE-24629, MCPE-27818, MCPE-27820, MCPE-29564, MCPE-29779) which led to a change in mechanics implemented in 1.2.13. It is a bug that witches do not respawn consistently in Witch Huts because the developers’ intent is that they should. This is a bug report, not a feature request.Often, some will respawn at first, but then they will stop respawning.

You will likely see very few witch respawns from the hut. Kill the witch that spawns with structure generation.Further, creating a witch farm from the hut can take an enormous amount of time and effort, such that players get frustrated and abandon the attempt, or do not even try to begin with. Very often, after killing the witch that spawns with the structure, no more witches spawn. Observed Results: Witch Huts have the ability to respawn witches, but they do not do so consistently. Witches should respawn in huts consistently enough to make the area challenging and/or to make witch farms feasible. Actual resultĮxpected Results: Witch Huts would consistently respawn witches. Witches continue to respawn indefinitely. AFK far enough away for witches to respawn.Set up a system to automatically kill witches that respawn at the hut.(Distilled from this comment and comments following it.)
