:D My name is Jessica and My fiancee's name is Corey. A red earred slider was recently dropped on us. We knew nothing about him but fell in love with "him" (sex unknown still). We named him Cleatus. I'm still learning, and really want to insure Cleatus has the best quality of life in captivity possible. We def. aren't there yet. Cleatus is about 3-4 inches, so if anyone can tell me how old he may be?

Hi, welcome to the site! At 3-4 inches and captive bred, he's probably at least 2 or 3 years young, depending on the sex. If he has a thick tail and long claws, you probably have a male.
