Olive to brown with yellow stripes or spots.

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
Key considerations for caring for a red-eared slider turtle pet include providing a proper habitat with a large enough tank, UVB lighting, a basking area, and clean water. Additionally, maintaining a balanced diet of commercial turtle pellets, vegetables, and occasional treats like insects or fish is important. Regular tank cleanings, monitoring water quality, and providing opportunities for exercise and mental stimulation are also crucial for the well-being of a red-eared slider turtle.
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
To determine if a red-eared slider is pregnant, you can look for physical signs such as a swollen abdomen, changes in behavior like increased nesting activity, and potentially feeling eggs when gently palpating the turtle's abdomen. It is recommended to consult a veterinarian for a definitive diagnosis.
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.
