Thank you for pic of the plastron. Have you got pictures of the parents? Is this little one orange/yellow on the head or it is just a lighter red and the picture doesn’t show it?
I realise I didn’t update this post. I went to see the seller, put the tortoises in warm water and they were male indeed, they both showed it to me lol.
He seemed surprised about me asking for warm water to soak them, he apparently had neved done it...
hello, these 2 star tortoises are about 320g, do they look female or male? They are sold to me as females

Thank you!
Can I ask you how big Tucker is? I have some young ones (2y plus) which are still "growing marbling". Could marbling disappear from a certain size tather than a certain age?
How big are the females cloaca opening? According to Allegra, a female is not sexually mature until an egg the size of a ping pong ball can pass. Size of the actual tortoise is less important than width of cloaca.
Thank you for the updated pictures! Wow, amazing transformation! Still gorgeous...and so smooth!
So I guess my little 2y old which has got marbling will not be like that for long lol
