So happy to get a great review from the reptile vet about these 2.... who I have found out are both girls! So now instead of being called V and U it's now Una & Veda.
Seriously so happy! 20180126_152453.jpg

I beg your pardon for sounding skeptical, but really? Those babies are way too small to be able to visually sex them. Did the vet surgically sex them (the only other way I knowof).

Both are great-looking little tortoises.

Cute little tortoises.

Personally, if a vet told me a small leo's gender based on visual observation, I'd be skeptical of everything else they said.

If the vet was an exotic specialist and used the scope to sex them, we'll then, that's great! Congrats and bring out pink balloons :) :tort:

Cute little guys, but way to young to sex right now visually. The vet's prediction is 50/50, so be ready in case you end up with a male.
