Olive to brown with yellow stripes or spots.
Distinctive red stripe behind ear.
Here's a picture:
You cant tell them apart from males until they are at least 4" long. At that size, males will usually have longer nails ( for mating and fighting) and a thicker tail. Females will have short nails and thinner tails in comparison
Red Eared Slider turtles need very deep(even when babies) spring or purified water in a glass aquarium or, as long as you up grade as they grow, a plastic tank. You can even keep them in an outdoor pond once they are over 6inches long. You should stock the tank with some land, a floating log or a floating rock, that is large enough for the turtle to be completely out of the water, and the land has to be LAND not some thing were only your turtle's shell makes it out of the water. Your tank will also needs a powerful filter and a heater that will keep your tank at about 75-80 degrees Fahrenheit. You should put some real or plastic plants in your cage too. As well as a turtle bone, the same thing you would give a bird, found in the reptile section of pet stores. Some live feeder fish would be good things to keep your turtle busy with. Also you can decorate your tank with some things you like, like fake coral, rocks, figurines, whatever you thing looks good, as long as it doesn't hurt your turtle. For substrate use gravel larger than your turtles head so that he won't eat it and get an impaction, don't use sand either because it will break your filter and your turtle can eat it and the sand will clump up in the turtles stomach or intestine and kill the turtle. Your turtle will need some special lighting if he is kept indoors. He will need a UVB light (artificial sunlight) and a heat lamp over his land to warm him up and for him to bask in. I would set up the UVB lamp over the water.

A slider turtle is basically like a category of turtles including the Yellow Belly Slider Turtle and the Red Eared Slider turtle.
The Red Eared Slider is the most common kind of pet turtle, so I'm guessing that the Red Eared Slider is the best kind of turtle for a pet. People do seem to like it!
It sounds like a red eared slider
they just have a red belly
you can buy a cuttle bone at the pet store (they are designed for birds) and float it in the tank for the turtle to knaw on. This is cheap, like a dollar or two.
they look really cut
Actually, nobody really knows which one is better:a red eared or a snake neck turtle. But they do have opinions. Somebody can say that a red eared turtle is better than a snake neck turtle and somebody else might say tha a snake neck turtle is better than a red eeared turtle. We have different thoughts and opinions. I hope this helped. If you need any more advice on turtles, feel free to email me and I will send you one back quickly. My email is: kate216@hanmail.net
good names for a red eared slider should be based on their personality/what they're like. hope this helped.
A Painted Turtle can only "procreate" (have young) with another Painted Turtle but they have been known to "mate" (have sex) with Red Eared Sliders and Yellow Belly Sliders. They probably wouldn't try to mate with any other kind of turtle, other than a similar species of water turtle like maybe a Map Turtle. For instance, a painted Turtle probably would not try to mate with a Soft Shell Turtle or a Snapping Turtle (or any land turtle like a Box Turtle) because they would not recognize it as a possible mate. When a Painted Turtle tries to mate with a Slider, it is because its instincts are telling it that based on size, shape, and mating displays and behaviors, etc., it is another Painted Turtle. Interestingly, Red Eared Sliders and Yellow Bellied Sliders rages currently overlap and where they do there is a lot of unsuccessful mating going on between the two species but they cannot procreate. That is part of the "definition" of a separate species.
Most people like to call that a tail. ya know a "tail". The're on most animals.
Do you mean black claws or back claws? Well, the answer is yes, to both. Their claws are blackish-looking on the inside (although on the outside they are translucent like human fingernails), and yes, female red-eared sliders have both front and back claws, just like the males. The difference is that the claws of the male are usually much longer.
Like their species name, they have a red ear. They have a red bloch at the place where the ears are at most turtles. They have it because it disinguishes them. Most people who sees a turtle with a red bloch will most likely to notice them as red eared sliders.
