∙ 14y agoActually, 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

Why is my yellow belly turtle gasping and squeaking
I got my yellow bellied slider turtle at a flee market for $10. it was at Rodger's flee market in Ohio. now the red eared sliders r almost anywhere u look.
The turtle you are describing sounds like a red-eared slider (Trachemys scripta elegans), which is a common species of turtle kept as pets. They are known for their distinctive red markings on their head and limbs, with a yellow underside.
A baby turtle with yellow and black stripes is usually a yellow-bellied slider. Their skin is striped yellow and black, and their shells have yellow and black swirls.
The plastron is the part of the shell that faces the ground; it is the part protecting the turtle's abdomen. In the case of a yellow-bellied turtle such as a slider or cooter (as a hobbyist, I've had 2 MS yellow-bellied cooters in my life and I think they're great turtles), the plastron is in fact its yellow belly. Hope it helps.

They will thrive on a mix of fish, turtle food, and some leafy vegetables.

I wouldn't suggest it.
by the way you have described it it sounds as if it is a yellow bellied slider, if it has to red marks on the sides of its cheeks/head it will be a red eared slider.
