How set is she on having turtles, like stated above, they are a huge responsibility. They need a very large aquarium because they get quite big. A really good filter or the water will always be green and smelly. They need constant water changes. They also require special lighting. They also enjoy feeder fish and I've seen some people even feed their turtle mice.
I am speaking from expierence with Red Ear Slider turtles.
