Red-eared sliders lay eggs by digging a hole in the ground near water, usually in sandy or soft soil. The female turtle then lays a clutch of eggs in the hole, covers them with soil, and leaves them to incubate. The eggs hatch after about 60-90 days, and the baby turtles dig their way out of the nest and make their way to the water.
Red-eared sliders typically lay eggs when they are around 5 to 7 years old.

meiosis
No, only female red eared sliders lay eggs.
Snakes make eggs through a process called oviparous reproduction. Female snakes produce eggs internally, which are then laid outside the body. The eggs are usually covered in a protective shell and kept warm until they hatch. This process allows the embryos to develop outside the mother's body.
