Species?

[jammy237]

These are my three tortoises. I know what type the smallest two are but does anyone recognize the largest one's patterns or breed? My mother also has loads of torts but they are also Hermanns. Would be nice to know what she is.... Thanks.

The big one looks Greek to me, but In not that good at ID'ing torts. Like a %50 chance of me being correct. Maybe even less

There are about 6 types of greek tortoise breeds. The person I got her from said a Dalmatian or something to that effect... But she doesn't look like the pics I've seen.

I believe "Dalmation" would be referring to a type of Hermanni, not Greek.

Thanks. That's what my mothers 15 tortoises look like. My two smaller ones are both from that family. I'll try and get a better picture over the next day or two. She is much lighter in color then the other ones. I'd like to find her a boyfriend but to do that I need her correct species name.....
