Russian tortoise

[gregcalverley0327]

Just wondering if this is a normal Russian tortoise? The colors look a little whiter to me, not mine but thinking about getting it

It's just a whole lot of new growth that happened in a short period of time. I wouldn't hesitate to get it.

Looks unusual to me. I'd love to hear what the Testudo experts think. That degree of marginal flaring is not something I've seen on a Russian before. Can you get more photos?

Can you describe more what "marginal flaring" is? I'm interested in learning more. Thanks!
