Good info in the post above. Be aware that the slider will get to be a pretty big turtle and eventually need a large tank or pond as an adult; if you're not willing to put in that kind of investment, then think about finding someone else to take it in. Please DO NOT release it into the wild; it is illegal in most places, and for good reason. Released pets can carry deadly pathogens into the wild.
