Breeding

Minecraft Turtles can be made to breed with seagrass which makes them enter love mode. This makes another Turtle pregnant and it starts to move towards the beach it had spawned in. Turtles inherently remember the beach it has spawned in and will move towards it once ready to give birth.

This can be changed by shifting the eggs, with a Silk Touch Pickaxe and moving it to a different beach.

After reaching the beach, the Turtles lay eggs in groups of 4 on sand or red sand. Eggs are very fragile and can break with hand or if living creatures walk on it. The eggs will eventually hatch by cracking bit by bit.

After hatching, Baby Turtles are spawned and are the smallest mobs in the game. Players can feed it seagrass to make them grow faster.
