The first year the Yellow bellied slider will grow about 4 to 5 inches and the second year - it will grow to 6 to 7 inches. In the third year it will grow to its maximum size of 8 to 13 inches. Hope this will help you.
Regards,
Wing Wong I have read that females can grow upto 12cm (males are smaller) but I am not sure how accurate this info is as I don't know anything about them I am looking into them for a friend!

And also if it's captive and it's fed a lot the yellow belly can be much bigger.

Can you put a frog in with your red eared slider and your yellow belly turtles?
First of all, a 10 gallon tank is too small for a turtle, let alone a turtle AND a frog! The proper rule of thumb for aquatic turtles is 10 gallons for every inch of turtle... if you have a 4 inch long turtle, you need at least 40 gallons of water. And second of all, putting a frog with a slider of any age will mean a fed turtle. The turtle WILL eat the frog. Don't try it.

What is habitat of a turtle?
It depends on the species of turtle. Some are water turtles like the red eared slider and some are land turtles like the box turtle. You would need to know the species to know the preferred habitat. If keeping the turtle as a pet, you'll want to create a habitat similar to that they would have in the wild.For red ear sliders, yellow bellied sliders and water turtles, they will need a large aquarium with a filter and aeration. They need heat lamps and a docking platform so they can get out of the water and bask to dry their shell. They need UVA and UVB light in order to digest food and stay healthy.Land turtles, including the gulf coast box turtle, need a box of soil mixture, a water bowl, a hiding place and a heat lamp. For the substrate, use a mixture of soil and moss.
