Crimson Mushrooms are variants of nether cows, covered in Crimson Fungus, they inhabit the Crimson Forest biome.
Crimson Mooshrooms can spawn in Crimson Forest biomes in herds of 2–3 and on Crimson Nylium.
Breeding
A pair of crimson mooshrooms can breed after being given crimson wheat. Feeding crimson wheat to a baby crimson mooshroom shortens its growing time by 10% of the remaining time. Baby crimson mooshrooms do not have crimson fungus on their backs. Crimson Fungus appear once the baby grows to an adult.

Shearing a crimson mooshroom drops 5 crimson fungus and turns into a normal cow, emitting a smaller version of the explosion particle. The crimson fungus do not grow back. Like other baby animals, killing a baby mooshroom yields no items or experience.
Crimson Mooshrooms have the same AI behavior as cows: they walk around slowly and aimlessly, huffing and mooing occasionally. They avoid danger such as cliffs, fire, or lava, but make no attempt to stay out of water.
A crimson mooshroom follows a player holding crimson wheat.
Milking
A crimson mooshroom can be milked by using a bucket on it, yielding a milk bucket. Crimson Mooshrooms can also be milked using bowls to get crimson fungus stew (has 5 minutes cooldown).
