My Geno is two or three years old they think. But they couldn't tell what gender. Can you guys? He/she is a Greek tortoise by the way! Also, ignore the blue stuff on him. It's his substrate. The mix of calcium sand and Eco-earth. What the vet suggested:)

It looks like you have a male greek tortoise. You need to change the substrate asap though. Possible substitutes for your substrate are cypress mulch, coco coir, and sphagnum peat moss.

Your Greek tortoise is male and closer to 5-8 years old than two or three.
