I recently rescued this tort from classifieds from some folks who had to get rid of it "ASAP"...they say its a male but I'm uncertain. "He" is about 6". I am planning to rehome him but need reassurance he is actually a male as I just kind of have my doubts. My male russian's tail is very obviously curved around and longer, whereas my females look more like this "guy", so...I'm unsure.

Here are a few pictures...

I think Hagrid might be Olympe instead too...I'm glad I asked! I thought I was losing my mind, they were so insistent it was a boy I didn't even look until I got "him" settled in.

Unanimous. Female. Where abouts are you? Have you already got a home lined up?

I will keep her if she's a girl, if she was a boy I planned to rehome as I have a boy and no room for another but a girl I can keep in my large female enclosure.

Thanks folks! I'm glad I wasn't loosing my mind lol
