🟩 Slime
Slime is a common Monster Loot item in Stardew Valley, dropped by various types of Slimes when defeated. A single Slime monster can drop up to two Slime. It is also obtainable from Slime Balls, the Traveling Cart, and certain special sources like Fish Ponds.
Slime is widely used for crafting, resource processing, and occasionally in bundles. It is also one of the most common early-game items due to the abundance of Slimes in the Mines.

💡 Tips & Notes
- Slime is very common — farming early Mines levels quickly stockpiles it.
- Use a Slime Hutch for a renewable supply of Slime Balls, which yield large amounts.
- Slimejack Fish Ponds are a unique alternative source of mass Slime.
- Save Slime for crafting and Slime Egg production rather than selling, since its base price is low.
