flat bottom shell female, indented bottom shell male, he has to be able to stay mounted
a girl red eared slider has small claws. a boy has big sharp claws.
to see if a red eared slider is a boy or girl, look at the claws and tail. if they r long it is a girl. if they r short it is a boy. I know because I have two of them
by ya face
For Red Eared Turtles a female has short nails and a male as long sharp nails.
Use a thermometer ! You, as a keeper, should know the temperature ranges suitable for a RES.
if there is a indent in youer turtle it is a male ok ikf it is flat it is a girl ok
Masculine turtles usually:* have (slightly) concave plastron and convex carapace * have a bigger tail
Depends on how big it is!red eared sliders can get very big.
You can tell by looking at their claws. A female red eared slider's claws are shorter, much shorter, than a male reed eared slider's claws. This is most likely for fighting.
a dangerous way is to put your hand in front of it. if it pulls its head back it can see you. that's why it pulls its head back. no guarentee if this will work though
"Unfortunately, you can not tell the age of a turtle by it's size. Turtles grow depending on how big their environment is." Actually, no. A red eared slider does NOT grow to their environment. If you feed it, it will grow. If not it will, obviously not grow then die. But there is no way to tell how old a RES is unless you hatched it or know who hatched it. It does not matter how big it is. Some owners over feed or under feed their turtles so there is no way determining it by size either.
how do i tell if my my turtle is a girl or a boy?...
if it stays on dry land and if its a water turtle.u will need to take it back.And get a dumb one
