>>>>I would not suggest interbreeding different species of turtles. Many times the hatchlings will have problems. Why create turtles with deformaties? Also many times the eggs wont even hatch. Last but not least, theres no market for them. If you want to breed, stick to the same species.

Painted to Painted sub-species crossings yes. Slider to slider sub-species crossings yes. Painted to Slider species crossing no. Sliders are not genetically compatible for such a cross breeding to occur. Won't happen.
