Gender guess's?

[ICUSleeping]

Only really on Zeus

Zeus is 2yr old
16inchs long and 23inch wide

Charlie is 1yr old
11inchs long and 16.5 inch wide

Charlie was not trying to show me her tail at alll but hers a pic of her underside anyway

I say female both.

 

[ascott]

I would say ladies as well...however, this appearance can change as the torts age...

First 2 pics are from Zeus which is my biggest the second to last is Charlie ....I've never guess their genders before because well their still small and have a lot of growing to do but I thought what the heck Zeus might be big enough

You've got some bigguns on your hands! I've only read of a few that are that large at that age. I would guess female as well.

How are you measuring them? They don't look as big as the measurements would indicate. Surely not 23 inches wide. Are you doing a strait line scl measurements ?

 

[ICUSleeping]

My mistake wide wasn't The right word to use. Round?

[ICUSleeping]

Most definitely not 23 inches wide lol

 

[diamondbp]

Lol that clears it up. Most people do all strait lengths and weight but I suppose an "all around" measurement wouldn't hurt lol

On this day they were out for the majority of the afternoon. They ate very big dinner. I soaked them and then tried 2 trace them, but they wouldn't stay still so I said the heck with it and did that measurement and barely got the length
