The main thing with animal farms is making them in deserts or oceans. Basically wherever animals can't spawn, so that when you put grass where you want them to spawn in that biome they will a lot more frequently. Then you can make it exactly like a normal mob spawner.

That would require either having a silk touch tool or making a trail of dirt and waiting for the grass to spread. Both of which would take an obscene amount of time, not to mention luck for the silk touch.
...if you build a double layered fence, they will not glitch out of this. I sometimes find animals heads stuck in the fence and I guess this is how they would glitch outside however because I have a second fence running all around my first fence, the animals cannot actually glitch through the first fence because there is no space for them to land on on the other side (because of me second fence covering the space).
This is how my animals are penned in on my farm and they have NEVER glitched out of a 2 layered fence! They also NEVER despawn as long as the area within the fence is less than 20 x 20. You can be away from your farm for days (even in the Nether) and they will NOT despawn.
Thank you sooo much! I was considering it at first but I didn't know if it would help

How big is this area. Remember they can despawn if they can move more than 20 blocks. I have never had a problem keeping animals inside of a 20X20.
