Nice but not YBS! Those are Cooters, possibly Florida Red Bellies but it's hard to tell from those photos.

Hard to tell as it's not a very big pic, the one at the back definitely isn't, that looks like a cooter too, the one at the front I'm not sure but it's not a YBS. If you can post some bigger photos showing them from all angles I could tell for sure.

As usual the petshop was wrong!
Take a look at their mouths, if the upper jaw is notched right at the front so it looks as though they have two pointed front teeth, then they're most likely Florida Red Bellies. FRBs usually have quite a lot of orange colouring in the carapace too. If they don't have the notch then some clear pics of the carapaces will help.

Having seen some better pics of Durhamchance's turts I can see I was wrong about the smaller one, it is a YBS but appears to have some Cumberland in it too. The bigger ones looks pure Cumberland Slider.

I would guess Cumberland's also,
What is the setup like you currently have them living in, am a bit supprised Graham didnt point out the danger of small gravel in with the turts, or the signs of condensation on the second pic highlighting the possable use of a lid on the tank, this can cause resperity issues with turts, and where possable no lid should be used on the tank. Sorry Graham I know its not your place but its just you are normally very good at pointing these things out to people. |

You're right of course about both the gravel and the condensation, it is something I'd normally mention, I must have been concentrating too much on ID'ing the turts!
