gender determination

Hi All, I've recently gotten the ability to help improve this tortoises life, I'm pretty sure it's a Russian, I started with soaking it today and was wondering if the lovely people here could help me identify weather this little guy is a male or female. (I started today and didn't want to stress...

Hi, we adopted this sweet spur thigh in the autumn. We think it maybe female, but aren’t sure. Any ideas would be much appreciated!

My tortoise is about 2 years old and just under 3 inches. I know typically you have to wait a bit longer but heard for Stars you can make a pretty good guess fairly young. Anyone have ideas for what sex my tort is?

Hello! :) This is my 4 yr old tortoise (testudo hermanni boettgeri). I rescued it from my cousin because he got it for his kids and was keeping it in bad living conditions. Because of that the vet told me it grew way too fast. She told me last year that she could already tell that it is female...

Hello! We took in this sulcata as a rescue, so the age is unknown. Perhaps around 3 years old, but she has always been small and slow growing.

Hi! I have had box turtles, but this is my first Russian Tortoise. The lady at the pet store said it is a she, but I’m starting to second guess. She also didn’t know age. Any ideas? I am in love. I would like to give it a name and I don’t want to just pick gender neutral.

These two girls are 7 year old half sisters so I know they're young to sex. I was told they’re looking like girls but I previously had to give one back because it turned out to be a male at 15. My family is trying not to get attached in case one turns out to be male… what do these two look like...

Hi, Just got back from a vet visit for my newly adopted tortoise. This vet is convinced that "Hank" is female.... but the vet at the animal shelter that I adopted from thought it was a mature male tort. If Hank is female, the vet thinks they would be fairly young, around 5 years old, since...

This is Tortellini, AKA Teeny. She is a rescue from PETCO, I have had her less than 48 hours. She was going to get euthanized because of her blemished face, but I saved her because she is very much alive and well. ( I own another one and have the $$$ to add another family member as well. The...
