This is one of the 2 baby red eared sliders I got. Bout a month old and 2 inches long. And for those of you from other forums, yes, their names have changed.

What a little CUTIE! Makes me want a terrerium! I've kept box turtles before, but nothing like that. What do you feed them?

Females can get as big as a dinner plate!!!!!!!!
I want some, but only have a 29G. My best friend has 2 for his daughter and they are in a 10G!!!!!!! I told him he better set up his 75G again!
Here is one of them,

75 gallon is too small even for 1 if it's a female.
Mine are going out to the pond life as soon as they get bigger.

I wish I had a pond... we have a drainage pond, but it stays dry on account of the hole knocked out of the base of the drain unit for child safety ( we have too many kids running around the neighborhood, and one of them might drown if that stayed full ). My fenced off backyard is too small for a pond though, so I have no where to put one. If there wern't any small kids in the neighborhood, I might think about patching the hole in the drainage pond, and lining it... but I can't, plus, my wife and I would like to have kids too.

As somebody I know says "Kids get stupid around ponds" They get even stupider around ponds with turtles in. Actually, all the common sense gets drained out of them when their even remotley close to any body of water.
Oh, and jdizine, I believe that's a yellow eared slider, not red, but it's hard to tell in the picture.
New picture so you can see how small they are.
