Hi Everyone!
I was wondering if I could get some assistance in identifying my Hermann's tortoise subspecies. She's a beautiful little 16 month old that I bought from a breeder at an expo. Unfortunately, I didn't ask him at the time what her lineage is and a family member seems to have tossed his business card :/
Anyway, I'm 100% certain she isn't a Western, at least not pure. She appears to be an Eastern to me, but I'm no expert and would like to know if she is possibly a Dalmatian or some sort of hybrid. She does have bilateral inguinal scutes present. Here are some pics of her. Thanks for the help!
