Hello Guys, This is my greek tortoise, I got it from my grandma last year but I still can’t figure out if its male or female.

I’ve been told it’s a female because of it’s tail but then I found something coming out of it and some people said it’s his penis so it’s a male and the other said it’s a worm!

Now I’m so confused guys, Could you help me please?

Sorry for the images!

Sometimes females flash too. I think female, however I am not an expert. Hopefully an expert will give you the correct answer

I would guess male most likely as it is rare that females extend their genitals. Though, the tail and anal scutes look female.

Can you post some more photos of the tortoise? The current pictures are angled and make it difficult to tell. What subspecies it it? Cyrenacia maybe?
