What Gender

I got a baby Russian Tortoise, and I believe he is a boy because of his tail is this correct?

It is harder to differentiate male from female at early ages.

I don't think you will know for sure for a couple of years. Name it something unisex and don't be disappointed if you boy ends up being a girl

He/she is too small to sex right now. I would say check back in a few years.

Boys tails are usually longer and flipped aside and females and short and stubby tails ... But at young age your tortoise is to young to be sexed so wait till he's about 4-5 years or so or even earlier and see if you can notice a difference !
