DonutSMP Pig Spawner Calculator
Estimate porkchops per minute, hour and day for any spawner count - with DonutSMP's diminishing returns built in.
Pig spawners are DonutSMP's food factory: porkchops are one of the simplest food supplies to mass-produce, and a passive spawner farm keeps them flowing while you AFK.
Enter your pig spawner count below to estimate porkchops per minute, per hour, and per day. The estimate applies the diminishing-returns curve measured on DonutSMP skeleton spawners (credit: 3706) as an approximation - the same stacking throttle applies to every spawner type, but pig drop yields were not separately measured.

Full porkchop price historyHow to use the pig spawner calculator
- Enter your spawner count. Type the number of pig spawners in your farm into the calculator - from a single spawner up to a full warehouse.
- Read the production estimate. The calculator applies DonutSMP's diminishing-returns spawner curve and shows the estimated porkchops per minute, per hour, and per day.
- Check the income estimate. When recent porkchop price data is available, the calculator also multiplies production by the latest average auction price to estimate income per hour and per day.
About the production curve
The formula behind this calculator was fitted by DonutSMP community member 3706 from real measurements of skeleton spawners: bones collected per minute across a range of spawner counts. It captures DonutSMP's diminishing returns - each additional spawner adds less than the one before it. DonutSMP applies the same stacking throttle to every spawner type, so this page applies the same curve to pig spawners as an approximation - per-mob drop yields were not separately measured, so treat the numbers as estimates.
What porkchops are used for
Porkchops are a staple food item - cooked, they are one of the best-saturation foods in the game - so they trade steadily as cheap bulk supply for players who would rather buy food than farm it.
Frequently asked questions
How many porkchops does a pig spawner produce on DonutSMP?
Production does not scale linearly on DonutSMP: a handful of spawners each produce roughly two drops per minute, but the server throttles output as you stack more, so per-spawner yield keeps falling. Enter your exact spawner count in the calculator above - it applies the diminishing-returns curve community member 3706 measured on DonutSMP skeleton spawners, applied to pig spawners as an approximation and shows estimated porkchops per minute, hour, and day.
Do spawners have diminishing returns on DonutSMP?
Yes. The more spawners you run, the less each individual spawner produces. The curve used by this calculator was fitted from real measurements on DonutSMP (credit: 3706): per-spawner output starts near two drops per minute and decays toward roughly 0.064 drops per minute per spawner at very large counts. That is why doubling your spawners does not double your income.
How much money do pig spawners make per hour on DonutSMP?
That depends on the current auction price of porkchops. When recent price data is available, this page multiplies the estimated porkchops per hour by the latest average porkchop price recorded by our DonutSMP price tracker and shows the result next to the production numbers. Prices move constantly, so treat it as a snapshot and check the live porkchop price page before you commit to a build.
What do pig spawners drop on DonutSMP?
Pig spawners produce pigs whose drops are porkchops (plus occasional extras depending on how the mobs die). Porkchops are valued as food supply: cooked porkchops restore among the most hunger and saturation of any food. The calculator above estimates raw output; check the live porkchop price page for what that output currently trades at.
