Can you help me identify the gender?

[Tortoise8]

I got two baby tortoises before knowing that it’s not a good idea to keep two. I’m not sure if they’re female or male but if they’re both female , would it be harmless to keep them both?

can you help me identify the gender?
Thank you!

How old are these? Characteristics look female but they fit in your hand so they are young and that means it is pretty inconclusive, their shells change a lot over their first 5 years.

Yeah, young tortoises all look female. It takes a couple years for them to start to show male characteristics.

As far as keeping them together, it doesn't matter what gender they are...they'll bully and fight, even the girls. Occasionally 3 can work out, but even that is hit or miss. You could try it, but could also end up with 3 torts that each need an enclosure.
