So, I'm hoping you guys can help :) Previous owner told me my 4-5 year-old Hermann's tortoise is male, but a vet just told me female.

What do you think?

Looks female and probably big enough for certainty.

All tortoises look female outwardly until they are big enough to be near sexual maturity, so there is always room for doubt with a growing tort :)

I would say female looking at the tail but as JoesMum said it could be hard to tell yet.
