    For Only red eared slider , there us a easier way if telling if it is a male or female by looking at the head,in the middle there us a dot if it is a red dot then it is a female, if it is a yellow dot it is a male. (I found it out by myself)

      Emma Franklin that didn't even make much sence, and it isn't normal for a turtle to have such a tail.. even tho males have a longer one it isn't THAT big. Future vet, animal activist and turtle owner since 10years ago speaking. Oh and since you are a scientist" i don't really know what being a scientist has to do with turtles but anyway..
