How to Breed Turtles in Minecraft
This Minecraft tutorial explains how to breed turtles with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.
In Minecraft, you can breed turtles and make a cute little baby turtle from a turtle egg. Let's explore how to breed turtles.
Required Materials to Breed Turtles
In Minecraft, these are the materials you can use to breed turtles:
Steps to Breed Turtles
1. Find Two Turtles
First, you will need to find two turtles to breed. Turtles can be found in the Beach biome:
Turtles are usually found swimming in the water or walking along the sand. If you are having trouble finding turtles, you can summon a turtle using a cheat or you can use a spawn egg.
Your turtles will need to be close together when breeding, so we have built a sand wall to keep our two turtles from running away.
2. Use the Seagrass
Next, with the seagrass selected in your hot bar, you will need to feed the seagrass to each of the turtles, one at a time.
The game control to use/feed the seagrass to the turtles depends on the version of Minecraft:
- For Java Edition (PC/Mac), right click on the turtles one at a time.
- For Pocket Edition (PE), you tap on the turtles one at a time.
- For Xbox 360 and Xbox One, press the LT button on the Xbox controller.
- For PS3 and PS4, press the L2 button on the PS controller.
- For Wii U, press the ZL button on the gamepad.
- For Nintendo Switch, press the ZL button on the controller.
- For Windows 10 Edition, right click on the turtles one at a time.
- For Education Edition, right click on the turtles one at a time.
As you feed the seagrass to the turtles, you will see red hearts appear over their heads. Each of these turtles is entering love mode.
Once you have fed both turtles, they will turn to each other and red hearts will continue to appear over their heads.
After a moment, the red hearts will disappear and one of the turtles will start to dig in the sand.
Once the turtle is done digging, it will lay different sizes of turtle eggs on the ground. The turtle will lay up to 4 eggs.
Now you will have two adult turtles and a nest of turtle eggs (or clutch of turtle eggs). These eggs will hatch into baby turtles.
Congratulations, you just learned how to breed turtles in Minecraft!
