I've always thought Daisy was a girl but now I'm not sure.

"She" almost looks like a male to me. But I'm not entirely sure.

It's weird I can clearly tell my other tortoises gender but Daisy has me stumped.
The cloaca resembles a male's, but the tail seems kind of short.

Thank you! "She" is 41/2 in so according to the website is a little small. I just hope she is a girl or I have an issue with with my group.

If at 4.5" the tail is already that pointy and has the slit-shaped vent, then I am almost certain you have a little boy tortoise. The vent looks more * asterisk-shaped and is closer to the body in a female.
Here is an article with lots of pictures and a diagram: http://www.tortoiseforum.org/thread-86957.html
