Answer 1If properly cared for by the provision of the proper environment [temperature, light, water, sun, etc.] and proper feeding, the turtle will grow as you and I, and all living things, continuously. If all is optimal, the rate of growth will be dictated and limited only by it's genetic make-up. j3h.

A baby turtle in the proper habitat, and being fed the right amount regularly, will grow about 1/4 inches per month. But growth rates do vary per turtle.

How big of a tank do baby red eared slider turtles need?

A baby red-eared slider does not need a big tank. However, turtles grow fairly quickly, so, if you buy a tiny tank, you will have to buy a larger one when the turtle grows. So, to save money, you might want to just buy a large, adult-sized tank, and let the turtle grow into it. When I first got my red-eared slider (two and a half years ago), she was only a hatchling, about the size of a silver dollar (like, an inch and a half). At first, I got her a tiny tank (see the Related Link). When she grew too big for that, I got her a tank that was 12 inches long and 10 inches wide. Then she grew too big for that, so, now she lives in a tank that is 20 inches long and 12 inches wide.
