I have done research and I'm mainly looking at sliders (yellow bellied) I have read that they can lay eggs with out a male and that 5 years is and 6-7" is when you should start breeding them, but my question what is the youngest age/size a female will lay eggs with or with out a male? At what point should I put me female in a nesting area or better yet at what time should I add a nesting area to the setup?
I don't want to run into eggs in the water nor an egg bound female so any and all information about females laying eggs would be great
