Red eared slider turtles that have been raised in captivity or have been in captivity for a while LOVE people. They all have different personalities though. An example is my 1 1/4 inch long Red Eared Slider Turtle, he has been in captivity for about 2 1/2 months now he has just recently started coming out of his shell, hehehe. He doesn't enjoy being held but he loves to chase my finger around when I put it up to the side of the tank and for me to just pay attention to him while he is in the water. And he loves to pose for pictures! Other turtles will crawl up onto your hand and bask there or will want you to scratch their shell. As you can see all turtles have different personalities, just like people, but most make great, compatible and loving, pets.
