So no more constant sneaking to open inventory, just chuck him the stuff. They also self-heal from time to time, so you can be less worrisome! The Turtles now also will automatically pick up anything you throw at it. Control them by facing a certain direction or hold sneak to sink below the water. It is also fascinating to note that if one carries a Turtle into the water, he/she may find themselves propelled forward by the hardworking Turtle.

They now also live up to their name as Turtles, swimming and acting less derpy in their natural habitat of water. Not the entire Turtle, but their green highlights now can be dyed any of the wool colors, just like the wolf. Whats this? Colorful Turtles? That’s right. Now use them wisely, they carry about half of the regular single chest. If you have trouble figuring out your Turtles health, just open its inventory. Now go get a Turtle family (you can only carry one turtle at a time though)! Have fun! Oh! And you can carry your Turtle while on your horse. Turtles can also breed using a slice of melon, but they must be tamed first. To remove him from your body, right click him, and he will pop off. Once on you, you can always access his inventory while picking him up, by sneaking+right clicking (pointing at the turtle). However, your Turtle is quite slow on land, and if you don’t want your cute turtle to accidentally fall into that huge chasm of lava, you can pick up your Turtle, simply by walking close to it and right click (you must be pushing the Turtle and right click him at the same time). If you ever want your Turtle to stay put, you can sit him down, like any other tameable animal, just right click. If you really have no other options, you can kill your poor pet Turtle, and it will return all your items you stored, maybe even some fish. If you hit him in rage, you have to say your sorry (bribe him with some more fish). Have your diamonds in your Turtle, but forgot to feed him today? He doesn’t care. The Turtle does get hungry, so don’t forget to feed them raw fish once in a while, or else it will not listen to anything you have to say. Their shells will have a light green marking if tamed.

Once tamed, you can sneak + right click them to open their inventory. To tame a wild Turtle, you must feed it raw fish it might take a couple tries. They only spawn in max groups of 3, and are usually found alone. These sweet Turtles can only be found only swamp biomes, and they are quite rare. Pet Turtles Mod 1.7.10 adds a tameable Turtle to carry your items on those long hard journeys.
