Zombie Villager
Zombie Villager — mob.
Natural spawning
Zombie villagers are the undead form of villagers. They use the hostile-monster spawn rules and can also appear when a zombie infects a villager. Their data keeps the villager profession and appearance until the cure is complete.

Curing
A zombie villager can be cured while it has Weakness. Use a golden apple after applying the effect; the entity then converts for a random 3600–6000 ticks. Nearby iron bars and beds can make the conversion progress faster.
| Conversion time | 3600–6000 ticks |
|---|---|
| Required effect | Weakness |
| Cure item | Golden apple |
| Acceleration blocks | Iron bars and beds within 4 blocks |

Drops
The entity loot table gives rotten flesh and can give an iron ingot, carrot or potato when a player causes the kill. Looting increases rotten flesh and the rare replacement pool uses the normal player-kill condition.
| Rotten flesh | 0–2, increased by Looting |
|---|---|
| Iron ingot | 2.5% base player-kill chance, Looting bonus |
| Carrot | 2.5% base player-kill chance, Looting bonus |
| Potato | 2.5% base player-kill chance, Looting bonus |
| Potato processing | Smelts when the entity is killed while burning |
Sounds
Zombie villagers use their own ambient, hurt, death and step sounds. The cure action has a separate conversion sound.
| Ambient | Zombie villager ambient |
|---|---|
| Hurt | Zombie villager hurt |
| Death | Zombie villager death |
| Step | Zombie villager step |
| Cure | Zombie villager cure |
Behavior
The entity keeps the zombie attack behavior while preserving villager data, offers and gossip for the resulting villager. A successful conversion changes it into a villager and applies Nausea for 200 ticks.
