We deal with tortoises and turtles as well :)

For sexing, we need a good clear shot of the plastron (under shell) of your turtle including its tail. However, it may be that your turtle is too small to sex accuately. Post the picture and the experts can try :)

As has already been said, we'll need to see the underside of the turtle, a picture which includes a good, clear shot of the tail and vent.
