I purchased this female from a couple in fresno. According to her main keeper; He purchased her 11 years ago at the San Diego Reptile Show. And apparently was told she was imported from South Africa.... What do you guys think? Specs: 15 Inches long 25 pounds.

I think she is grand.....a couple little rub/scuffs on her beautiful shell, but look perhaps like she will get on fine with them..... again, she is beautiful...wish she would have poked her head out for a look see :D:D:D:D:D

You'll be surprised at how much easier it is to take care of bigger ones than hatchlings. :p

She looks more babcocki, a head/face shot will tell a little bit more.
