Plastron is slightly curved, but not extreme.
Are we in agreement? THE DAY is gonna come?

It’s the ugliest thing ever!! I saw my redfoots! Poor ladies.
That's really how I broke my leg!!I spy a future broken ankle!
I'm probably wrong as I know nothing about desert torts and I wouldn't put any money on it but my guess is female.I think I read that desert torts mature anywhere from 10-15 years old.
When I got him I posted these pictures...Tom said he looked male but not mature.
Maybe I'll take another one and see what everyone thinks.View attachment 269601View attachment 269603
Oh that is very sad about John and Jade.Good mornooning everyone.
We are having a family weekend this weekend. Both children came home last night and today we are heading north and east to the county of Norfolk to see my uncle (my Mum’s brother) and his fiancée for the day. Both are widowed and they are getting married this summer. This uncle has always been my favourite and my children’s favourite too. When we said we were going to see him, both children immediately said they wanted to come too
Son went to a stag do before coming home last night... I think he may be regretting that decision this morning [emoji23]
Oh and I have heard from John too He texted last night to say that he and Jade are no longer an item and he is moving back in with his Mum today. (Or as he puts it ... with his “other Mum”... he calls me his Mum too) I have no idea what’s happening to Fido (his tort) or the degus.
Forget what I said then - Tom is usually right!!I’m not an expert, Tom is usually right. I never argue with him because I wouldn’t win.
I never really looked at mine!
I assumed mine was male and the other is too young.
Here’s what Yvonne posted.
I’m gonna learn with you.

That is around 48F. Our summers are anywhere between 84F and 104F.Now I have to learn my math again. Is that around 35° - 45°f and possibly rainy? If so, that's our early spring. What in the world are your summers like?
[emoji23] [emoji23]13 years??? And you’ve never seen a thing??? Toretto doesn’t put his away often enough!!! Every since he discovered it, if he gets in the water it’s coming out!!! I don’t know how he’s ever going to poop outside
I would have thought female by the tail. But male by the v being so wide by his tail. But then I am still learning.I think I read that desert torts mature anywhere from 10-15 years old.
