Five Small empty red eared turtle shells for crafts and collecting.  They measure between 4.50 inches and 4.87 inches in length. These are real turtle shells - not replicas.  They will have natural imperfections. Some will have a little algae on the tops or bellies, bite marks, scratches and blemishes. Review all photos as you are buying the ones pictured. 

  The shells of the red eared slider turtle are used in Native American crafts. It is a cold-blooded animal and will usually be found during the day sitting in the sun on a rock, log, or any stumps that are near the water. Some red eared sliders can even be found up to three high basking in the sun. While the red eared slider is very hard of hearing they are sensitive to vibration they are very alert while they are basking. These vibrations allow the red eared slider the time to make their hasty retreat into the water if they feel threatened in any way.
