I had to look at some of my old pictures and i have to say i guess its actually pretty close to the size mine were. Sorry didnt mean to scare you. I'm not sure on the breed? I'm guessing yellow bellied slider.

I got him in Chinatown, they didn't tell me what he was, but all the other turtles in the store were RES turtles
