One can arrange pathway blockers, such as [[Crafting#Fences|fences]] or statues, to isolate the slimes while still being able to collect the [[Slime Ball]]s. The trapped slimes are still able to reproduce, and hatched slimes will also be in isolation. A copper or steel upgraded [[Watering Cans|Watering Can]] can fill the water troughs without entering the isolation area (although the copper Watering Can can would only fill 3 of the 4 troughs depicted in the example image below). Slimes do not need to reach the water source, so enclosing them anywhere will do. | One can arrange pathway blockers, such as [[Crafting#Fences|fences]] or statues, to isolate the slimes while still being able to collect the [[Slime Ball]]s.
