What species is she?

[Wolfie]

This is Lulu, my tortoise. Someone told me she was a greek, but then someone else told me she was a sulcata. She's really small, but who knows. I looked it up and baby sulcatas looks like a little greek. Can anyone tell me what she is? I've only had her a couple months and she hasn't really grown any. . .

The species, not breed for torts is a sulcatas.

So do you know what she is? Is she a Greek tort or an African spurred tort? Thanks!

The African spurred tortoise (Centrochelys sulcata), also called the sulcata tortoise

You have a sulcata.

Here is the right care info:

If she's not growing, then something in the care routine is off. Have you been housing her like a greek or like a sulcata? Very different requirements. One is a Mediterranean species needed mild temps, a night time cool down and moderate humidity, while the other needs to be kept warm 24/7 and needs high humidity to simulate the tropical rainy season they hatch into.

Sorry, don't know. But whatever species it turns out to be, it's a very cute little tort.
