Hi all,

Just stumbled across this site this morning. I've had my red eared slider for 19 years now, and she's been the one crazy constant of my life :P .

See you on the forums!

Hello Mimis,

I've read they can live anywhere from 40 to 80 years in captivity, provided they're well kept. My goal is for my turtle to become the heirloom of my house since she might just outlive me :D !
