	A slime needs a space of 2.08×2.08 ×2.08 blocks to spawn, which must be clear of solid and liquid obstructions. When a slime attempts to spawn, the game checks to see if the space requirement is followed. Therefore, small and medium slimes are not able to spawn in 2-block tall areas even though it would normally be enough room for other small mobs. Any block within the space, even a [[Minecraft:glass pane]], can prevent slimes from spawning.

	Slimes move by hopping, which they do every 10 to 30 [[Minecraft:tick]]s (0.5 to 1.5 seconds). They can swim in water and climb ladders and scaffolding. Unlike other mobs, slimes continue moving when no players are nearby. Their exact routine is as follows:		Slimes move by hopping, which they do every 10 to 30 [[Minecraft:tick]]s (0.5 to 1.5 seconds). They can swim in water and climb ladders and scaffolding.

	'''Slimes''' are cube-shaped [[Minecraft:hostile mob]]s that spawn deep underground in particular [[Minecraft:chunk]]s, aboveground in [[Minecraft:swamp]]s, or when an [[Minecraft:Oozing]]-affected [[Minecraft:entity]] dies (unless it's a slime). They ~~move~~ by jumping, chasing after their targets, and usually dealing [[Minecraft:damage]] on touch. Slimes spawn in different sizes, and larger ones split into smaller ones on death.
