    Update pics of my Greeks!

    Not to open a can of worms.. but don't they naturally cross breed in the wild? Originally dan said that he thought my t. g. antakyensis was a natural cross between that and t. g. terrestris.

    Update pics of my Greeks!

    ID my Greeks?

    Hey guys! I've had my greek tortoises for about a year now and today just officially moved them outdoors. I've been told both of them are females since they don't have any indents in their plastrons, and they get along well. However both look very different, I bought them from a reptile show...
