Hi,

Could anyone please, possibly, identify this tortoise? I think it is female, but not 100% positive. Her name is Judy and she is around 50 years old or possibly slightly over or under, a 3rd generation tortoise now, and when bought didn't get told anything about her, really.

Sorry, I haven't got any more photos yet, at least ones that could help with the identification.

Thanks, everyone. Peace. ✌

Looks like a female Greek tortoise to me Testudo graeca..
Could we have a photo of the underside, particularly the tail area and thighs if you could.
The tail should help us confirm the sex and if it has little spurs on the upper thighs it would confirm it is a Greek.

Your tortoise is a Gracea subspecies for certain, which one is difficult to determine by the photos. Would need to see a photo of it from directly above, directly below, from the side and the straight line carapace measurement (SCL).
