Witches have infinite potions in their stock, ready to be thrown and drunk. In Bedrock Edition, witches can locate targets even if they are behind blocks and are hostile to snow golems and iron golems. Witches attack each other if damaged by another witch's potion in Bedrock Edition. A witch damaged by another witch's potion drinks a healing potion instead, same as damaged by an illager. In Java Edition, they don't attack each other, even if hit accidentally by another witch's potion. Witches are passive toward villagers and wandering traders in both editions, although their potions can hit one by accident. These potions are the same as ones obtainable through brewing, i.e., they have the same potency and duration. They use potions in combat, throwing splash potions offensively and drinking normal potions defensively.

Witches can spawn as part of raids starting from wave 4 in Bedrock Edition, or wave 3 or 4 in Java Edition depending on the world difficulty. The newly-transformed witch attacks the player with its potions, even if the player traded with it before. A witch transformed from a villager cannot despawn, and cannot be changed back into a villager.
When lightning strikes within 4 blocks of a villager, it transforms into a witch. In Bedrock Edition, witches respawn on only one block within the swamp hut. This is the size of the roof and one block over the porch, from one level below the floor of the hut to two blocks above the roof. Otherwise, in Java Edition only witches (which may despawn) spawn in the 7×7×9 ( x×y×z) volume that is the hut.
