Turtle Egg block in Minecraft

Added in 1.13 Stack size: 64

A Turtle Egg is laid by a turtle on its home beach and hatches into a baby turtle.

What it does

Two Turtles fed seagrass breed, and one returns to its home beach to lay up to four eggs on sand. The eggs crack slowly, faster at night, and hatch on sand. Mobs and players jumping on them break them; zombies hunt for them. Only Silk Touch collects them.
