Biggs87x – Minecraft – How To Make A Turtle Enclosure

Hey guys and welcome back to another how-to tutorial and today I’m going to show you how to make this really cool turtle enclosure for the brand-new turtles in Minecraft 1.13 so guys stay tuned and I’m gonna show you how you can make it right guys to make this really

Cool turtle enclosure we are going to need all the blocks that you can see right in front of me we are going to need wooden logs dark oak slabs sand sandstone slabs stand stone stairs Coster long grass dead bushes cobblestone walls blocks stairs and slaps now once we have all of these

Blocks guys we then need to find an area of where we want to build our turtle enclosure now the first thing we want to do is build a circle which our enclosure is going to be in so what we’re going to do is grab our oak logs and we’re going

To place down five oclock so this is going to be the middle block right here place two on this side two on this side and that makes a total of five and this is going to be the start of our circle so what we’re gonna do we’re gonna start

On the left-hand side I’ve got to build two blocks diagonally away I’m going to do the same on the right hand side like that then starting next to this block right here we’re gonna do one two three in a little arrow shape like this and

We’re gonna do the same on this side one two three like this so as we’re just as you can see right here guys we’re slowly building our circle then we’re gonna put two more on this side like that and two more on this side like this then we’re

Gonna go back over to this side we’re gonna place five blocks in this direction so one two three four five we’re gonna do the same on this side as well so if we keep going in this pattern guys we should eventually meet up in the

Middle so as you can see I’ve done half of the circle right now so basically we’re going to start bringing it back around to the other side we’re gonna do the same pattern that we did in these corners over here so it’s a two then a

Little arrow shape then a two and then we’re gonna do that on this side as well so it’s a two a little arrow shape and then a two and then we join it up with five blocks in the middle so one two three four five so let me fly above so

You guys can see a clear representation of the circle that is the shape of the circle that we want so if you need to pause the video do so now and you can make this circle so once we have made the circle guys what we then need to do

Is go on the inside of us we need to place dark oak slabs all the way around the edge on top of each one of the logs that we’ve just placed down the reason we are placing these slabs on top of their logs like this is just to

Make sure when we put our turtles inside of our enclosure they cannot jump out and get free we want to keep them inside and these slabs will allow us to do that so there we go we have slabs on top of order the logs that we place down now

What we need to do is probably the longest part of the tutorial we need to clear out all this dirt on the inside so basically we need to dig down two blocks like this and we need to clear out all of this dirt that is two blocks deep so

This may take a while so what I’m gonna do I’m gonna cut it out real quick and I’ll be back when I’ve cleared out all of this space so once we have cleared out all of this space guys we should get something that looks like this remember

This needs to be two blocks below where we originally placed our log blocks so now all we need to do is grab our logs once again and we need to replace all of the dirt around the edges so we get a nice log wall all the way around the

Edge of our turtle enclosure so as we have finished all of the walls around our enclosure we should get something that looks like this and as you can see it’s starting to look a lot better so what we can do now is start working on the inside now we’re going to split this

Off into two sections you’re going to have a section of water and a section of sand so to start this off what we’re going to do is grab our sandstone slabs we’re gonna start over in this corner over here and what we’re going to do is just roughly make an outline or whatever

Shape you want I’m just doing this very randomly right now and we’re gonna drag it over to the other side so I’m just doing it really randomly and we’re gonna drag it all the way over here like this as you can see I’ve kind of just done a rough line like this

Now this little section over here is going to be our water and this section over here is going to be our sand so where our sand is going to go grab your sand and what we need to do is fill up this complete section right here with

Sand so all of this area right here needs to be filled up with sand once we have done that we should get something that looks like this next what we’re going to do is grab our coarse dirt now where the sand is what we’re going to do

Is put a layer of coarse stuff all the way around the edge of the wall just like this the reason we’re doing this is just to add some extra detail to our enclosure and it does look a lot better once we have completed it so just

Add a layer all the way around until we get to the edges like this I’ve done it on this side and I’ve stopped early on this side over here then what we’re going to do is get our sandstone stairs and we’re gonna place tears along the

Edge of the coarse dirt that we placed down originally so we’re just gonna run it all the way around make sure you bend your stairs nicely so they all connect to each other just like this and we’re going to run it all the way around to

The other side of where we stopped the coarse dirt just like this so we get this nice rim going around the outside then we’re going to get our long grass and we’re gonna put a long grass on each one of these pieces of course dirt like

This just to add that extra bit of detail on here now if you want to bonemeal these pieces of grass you can do to make them super long as well and what we’re going to do now is grab ourselves a dead bush and just place a

Few dead bushes around don’t do too many of them because you can overdo it then we’re going to grab some slabs and we’re just gonna punch some holes in the ground and just add some slabs and we’re also going to do the same with some

Stairs so I’m going to put a stair there and they’re gonna put a slab next to it like that just add some detail into the sand to make it look like it’s been dug out or something like that so as you can see guys we’re really starting to take

Shape with this so what we need to do now is go over to this side now where we have this little piece of dirt what we need to do is dig this out so it’s one block and lower than the half slabs that we have on this side and the reason we

Are doing this is because we’re gonna start filling this up with water because this is the part where the turtles are going to swim around so grab yourself a water bucket and just spam everywhere and fill this whole area up here with water if you make mistakes like this

Just fix it with a piece of sand or something like that and as you can see it fixes nice and easily but just replace all the water like this and you should get a nice little bit of water for our turtles to swim in so as you can

See guys it’s really really starting to take shape now now our turtles need the area to be able to climb back up to the sand so what you can do with this is grab yourself some sand and just place some sand in one little section like

This so they can climb up and climb down and you can also play some more slabs here if you want to just to make a little staircase going up and down now finally if we want to add some more detail what we’re going to do is grab ourselves on cobblestone

With some stairs blocks labs and some cobblestone walls and we’re gonna make a little water feature right here so I’m gonna put the water in this block right here and while going it’s going to do is just kind of build around it you can kind of do any kind of shape that you

Want to but I’m just gonna play some stairs like that then I’m gonna place a block maybe another block there then a slab here maybe a double slab there then that right there and just kind of just do a random kind of like water feature

Around it it’s totally up to you how you want to do it I’m just kind of randomly placing this around I didn’t like that stare so I’m gonna place a double slab on this side and then I’m just gonna place a slab like this on this side like

That so we’ve got something like this then we’re going to place our water bucket in there and as you can see the water kind of flows out like this the reason my water looks a little bit glitchy right here is because I’m using the current snapshot and that is a bug

In the current snapshot but if you want to make the water flow out in different directions you can go I put a slab there like that so it makes a nice little waterfall if you want to kind of control it a bit more you can cover it up like

This so it looks like a nice little waterfall for your turtle enclosure and I think it looks really really nice guys so now finally what we need to do is grab our turtles with a turtle egg and put some turtles inside of our turtle enclosure and as you can see it’s

Starting to look really really cool and it’s a really nice place to keep your pet turtles in the brand-new Minecraft 1.13 now I’m not a hundred percent sure when the turtle will be released on every single version of Minecraft but when they are released you should be
