Why did my turtle eggs disappear in Minecraft?

Your turtle eggs disappeared in Minecraft because they were trampled by players or mobs (especially zombies, drowned, husks), or because they were in a chunk that unloaded and the babies despawned, but the most common reason is simply being stomped on by any entity walking over them, so you need to protect them with fences or light up the area well.

Do turtle eggs need sunlight to hatch in Minecraft?

No, Minecraft turtle eggs don't need sunlight; in fact, they hatch much faster at night and during the early morning hours (around 3-4 AM game time) when they receive random ticks. You should protect them from zombies, but keep the area lit to prevent mob spawning, and ensure you don't sleep through the night, as that skips the prime hatching window, making it take much longer.

No, turtle eggs in Minecraft will not progress or hatch if you sleep through the night because they only advance their cracking/hatching stages at night when the player is awake and within range, meaning sleeping slows down the process significantly.
