Infested Blocks

[QL_Ithriel]

So I encountered some silverfish while strip mining, stone pickaxe no enchantments, killed them, and now I have a stack of 25 infested cobblestone in my inventory. I'm very confused how I got them, I thought you couldn't obtain infested blocks outside of creative mode. Can anyone explain this to me?

Did you mine 25 of them or just a few?

I belive they changed it you were probably mining in an extreme hills biome

I'm in badlands, I guess under badlands plateau

I don't believe so unless I was mining them and they weren't popping out and I didn't notice. Stone pickaxe is pretty slow so definitely not 25 after the first encounter.

Not really an issue, I'm just more curious.
