Trying to keep the sticky's clean. Comment on the video here.
We have an old Hermann's Tortoise that I have owned for 61 years which we always thought was male ( long tail and concave underneath) We bought a baby 1 year old Hermann's which the breeder said was female. She is 9 years old now and was caught humping the old one in the hot weather??. Have we got the sexes wrong or do Tortoises get confused? ?Trying to keep the sticky's clean.

You have quite the development on your hands & it may very well be that you can no longer keep the torts together if you have been. Regardless of what sex they are, I would say your older tort may no longer be welcome in the younger tort's "space."We have an old Hermann's Tortoise that I have owned for 61 years which we always thought was male ( long tail and concave underneath) We bought a baby 1 year old Hermann's which the breeder said was female.
