first off endermen will spawn if your far enough away and if its dark enough. if they take damage from water they will teleport. if you attack them they will teleport. if you throw anything at them, ex egg, arrow, potion, dispenser, babies and anything else of that sort will make them teleport. they can teleport 32 blocks in any direction and if it rains expect to have a endermen rave party in your kitchen.
This caught my eye, Either way where i come from throwing babies is a sport. At the moment i can't play because one of my teammates took a baby to the knee...But soon as the sport gets Legalized as (MLBT) major league baby tossing i will be looking for players.
OP: Endermen are like kids...They just want attention. Go outside with him for a while...ride a bike with him toss a baby or 2, play xbox together, goto the pool for a swwi...nvm...
My six-year-old niece calls the endermen "undermen" and had me build her a home for them in her seed. She thinks they are the coolest thing ever made. Haha.
On a another note, use Jack O'Lanterns for light, whether it's sitting on the floor, in the floor, in the walls, whatever. I don't know why, but endermen seem to never come in my houses when i use Jack O'Lanterns for light.
You can give your coop a "roof" that leaves it two blocks tall. I usually use slabs (wood, stone, etc.). After all, what does a chicken-duck need with the extra height? ;-)
if you kill an enderman while he;s carrying, the block disappears. tested that the other night...
endermen are easy to kill on easy with a stone sword. 2 hits, they die. They don't seem to teleport fast enough after the first hit, so it's walk up, whack, whack, dead.
For your chicken yard, put a roof on it at 2 blocks high. They can't enter it. I had to put a glass roof on my wheat garden because an enderman was trampling it.
Wearing a pumpkin on your head is also pretty helpful, you can stare at them as much as you want and they wouldn't know the difference because they can't see your face.
I've actually had an Enderman appear in my cave house and a friend of mine had put a Jack O' Lanturn in the main room, which was were the Enderman hung out at. I wore a pumpkin on my head and he didn't bother me at all, and it was also raining when it happened. So if it's raining outside, it's possible an Enderman will teleport in your house since they don't like getting wet.
I've also had one teleport into a prison cell in the basement of my castle! lol

Ok, that is adorable, even more so since you game with her. If only more parents/aunts/uncles/etc took the time to do such things.

Anyways, thought of another suggestion, a dispenser with a water bucket in the kitchen, just push a button and get the endermen's feet wet, then just push the button again and the mess is cleaned right up for you!

in that case, why not set up a simple piston to hold back water, and a lever to release the water onto the floor? Flip the lever to turn off the water.
I use a similar mechanism in my gate house, so that I can flood the entryway with Lava if I don't like who's at the door.

Why complicate it at all? I still like my method of just carrying a water bucket in my inventory wherever I go. That way, I don't have to be near any button or lever. If I see an enderman in the house or anywhere for that matter, I can just place the water anywhere I want and collect it again once he skeedaddles. The only thing I now found I have to be a little careful about is not placing the water so I wind up sweeping myself into a ravine or lava pool.
The only issue I have with always carrying a water bucket is that my inventory fills up fast so every little space counts. But that's just my personal issue with it, if it works for others then hey, do what's effective for you. Some like to keep it simple, others like to set up these amusing contraptions to deal with unwanted guest, the important thing is it getting the job done.

I also like to have it handy while mining, in case I get too close to lava and start to burn or I need to make a quick bridge over a lava pool. Someone made post recently here about all the great uses for a water bucket. I can't find it right now; but it's a great read and might just change your mind to see it as one of the most valuable items you could possibly carry in your inventory.

I wouldn't mind reading it, if anything just to see what uses I may not have thought of yet. I've learned to be very, VERY cautious around lava but I noticed a trend: Normally when I fall in it I can't get out of it fast enough to save my rear from becoming Tech well done. Normally it's thanks to a bloody skeleton. . .
You know, this whole thread has my mind concocting methods for tormenting endermen now, well, besides my old waterfall cell. I wonder if I could come up with an amusing endermen deterrent that would work while still letting me enjoy the show.
