How do you know the age of a red ear turtle?

[Edit]

Answer

Without knowing your turtles history it's next to impossible for a lay person to even make a guess. They aren't like dogs - where the teeth and other breed attributes will give you a good idea. If you adopted a rescue, and it's history is unknown, your best bet is to find a good herp vet - and bring your new pet in for a check up.

Good luck!
