This is a very cheap method but only gets about 5 skulls an hour but with the modifications it can get a skull every minute. Is there a trick to getting them to appear?
The algorithm then checks for the "bounding box" of the original fortress. Place a line of cobblestone on top of the redstone torches and then place another line of redstone torches on the outward side of that line. The only simple farm I've heard of is finding big bridges, grab nether bricks and make a massive platform in the chunks that the fortress has spawned in. You may want to add a cage of some sort around the farm to prevent ghasts from blowing up the structure during collection. bedrock-and-java-wither-skeleton-farm-1-16-1.

Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. It then allows mobs to spawn up to 7 blocks above the walkway, if there is a block beneath them. A typical farm of this type usually means destroying all platforms on which the wither skeletons can spawn and replacing them with collection points (usually lines of blocks with pressure plates on them for pistons to push into a grinding point). Apparently, whenever there are nether fortresses in loaded chunks, the game picks one of them and expands its bounding box so that fortress mobs can spawn on nether brick at any y level within the x and z bounds of the fortress. Even if you do spawn a wither skeleton, the drop rate for a skull is like 5%, meaning you should plan to kill ~ 60 wither skeletons to get enough skulls to spawn the wither boss.

So, I'm wanting to make a wither skeleton farm. It is primarily designed for Bedrock edition but works on Java as well, however it is worth noting that only one head can be dropped per group of wither skeletons. As long as the wither skeletons cannot reach the wolves, there is no chance of the wolves dying. Conversely, if you don't want to build an entire farm, you can clear out a big open space in the Nether fortress and then shoot wither skeletons with arrows but this is risky as you will still have to deal with blaze and ghasts.
