An Experiment with a Parrot, a Totem of Undying, and... a Cookie! In Minecraft

Hello, my curious friend! Get ready — today I’ll tell you about my craziest experiment in the world of square blocks. Honestly, I still remember it with a smile and trembling hands. Once, I already warned everyone not to feed cookies to parrots (I begged, shouted, and even dramatically shook my fist at the monitor). But, to be “honest,” curiosity won! Admit it — every Minecraft player has at least once thought of trying something like this… and so, I went for it.

Why did this idea even come up?

It hit me suddenly: “What if I cheat? What if the Totem of Undying saves the poor thing even from a cookie?” I have full trust in these totems — they’ve saved me in the Nether and on the edge of lava, so why not save a feathered friend? And that’s when the excitement took over. Honestly, this was one of the most intriguing and insane experiments I’ve ever done in the game!

A Laboratory in the Style of “Trust but Verify”

• One legendary test subject — Captain Cracker (I chose the best, no other way).
• A Totem of Undying — the golden standard of salvation.
• A command block to properly give the totem to the parrot, not “just winging it.”
• And, of course, the fatal cookie — gave me chills just pulling it out of the inventory…

Confession: everything felt official only in my head, but the atmosphere was like that of a real scientist! Captain Cracker sat there, looking at me with fatherly eyes, and I was already thinking: “This is going to be something incredible!”

The Magic Begins... or Does It?

I ran the command /item replace entity @e[type=parrot,limit=1,sort=nearest] weapon.offhand with minecraft:totem_of_undying. Vuuuh! The parrot had a totem in its claw — it looked strange but funny. Next — the cookie… Imagine a trembling hand, conscience knocking: “Are you sure this is a good idea?” I squint — and click.

Puff! Instant “shutdown,” green particles… That’s it — the Captain collapsed. All that was missing was some sad music, like in a movie. For a couple of moments, I was in total shock. But then: the epic totem activation effect, and Captain Cracker came back to life, as lively as ever! And honestly, it was pure joy: happiness, relief, and a well-deserved (green) fireworks display of emotions!

Pros and Cons of the Experiment

Pros:

• Discovery: the Totem of Undying really saves a parrot from a lethal cookie!
• You can safely experiment (if you really want to test game mechanics).
• The resurrection scene — unforgettable, emotions for a whole month!
• Your parrot is now a local celebrity (and a “survivor” in your friends’ eyes).

Cons:

• Stress for the owner — level “heart skipped a beat.”
• Even knowing it’ll be saved, it’s unsettling to watch your pet “go.”
• This trick requires cheating with a command block.
• Using this regularly is not an option, it’s too risky.

Conclusion: Is It Worth Repeating?

Overall, I’m absolutely thrilled! From a scientific perspective — the discovery of the century, honestly! But as a caring friend… my advice is: if you don’t want gray hair, just give your parrot some seeds and plenty of adventures, without extreme experiments.

Hugs! Share your strange ideas, and may your cubic friends always stay healthy… and a little surprised!
