you cam tell the sex of yellow bellies by the size of their tails the male has a longer tail
unless you had it from the time he was born, you can't tell. counting the rings on it's shell DOES NOT work.
A general age guess can be gained by simply looking at the size of the turtle. Yellow bellied and red ear sliders will reach approximately the size of a dinner plate when full grown.
A yellow back turtle or yellow-bellied slider is an aquatic terrapin which has evolved to live in warm waters. There is no definitive way in determining how old it is and the rings on its shell are not conclusive in gauging its years of age.
Both names refer to the same animal. In America terrapins, tortoises and turtles are all referred to as turtles. This has caused some confusion in the hobby and some pet/reptile shops here in the UK also call terrapins turtles. The peninsular cooter (also a terrapin) looks almost identical to the yellow bellied terrapin. Hope this helps.
how do i tell if my my turtle is a girl or a boy?...
Turtles begin to get restless and try to escape their tank when they are almost ready to lay eggs. They also may begin to make digging motions with their back legs.
Masculine turtles usually:have (slightly) concave plastronhave a bigger tailhave much longer nailsare smaller in comparison - 5 - 8 inches shell full size, compared to 8 - 13 inches for females
I have a turtle named Tuck and I can't find out if it's a girl or boy?
i think the boy is smaller and bumpyer,and the girl is softer and bigger
By spelling turtle right.
