Are my tortoises Hermann?

[hettisurmail]

I always thought my tortoises were Hermanns (THB). But the other day a friend who's an expert in tortoises said they were spur thighed. What do you think??

I'm really bad at differentiating between Hermanni and Graeca. Let's ask @HermanniChris

Your friend is wrong, they are eastern Hermann's tortoises (Testudo hermanni boettgeri).

Your friend is very wrong and they are 100% Hermann's tortoises.
