Well, like I said in another post, I traded the new male I picked up to a couple of good friends of mine for this little female. She started out with a bit of a rough life and was given to my friends a few months ago. The kids have named her Mrs T.
I have her separated with a see-through fence so Mr T can get used to her before I officially introduce them together. Here are some pics....

Yeah, it's pretty sweet summer home she has there. She's too small to share the shed with Mr T this winter, so I'll bring her in the garage in an 8X3 enclosure I have in there.

All the one's I have seen are rounded on the outside of the scute and the inside where is her's is rounded on the outside but the inside is rounded until the end where they go straight..

Nice tortoise Cameron. Females are hard to come by. I like the tortoise condo too.

thanks everyone! we're so happy to have her. i'm guessing she is around 4 years old based on size? i'm just hoping Mr T won't be such a butt-head to her when we introduce them. if he is though, she's still small enough that we can keep her separated until she's large enough to hold her own. by then though, he will probably still all over her...but for a different reason!
