Hi can anyone help me figure out the gender of my greek tortoise? ive had him for about two weeks now and I still cant figure it out, ive checked out pictures and to me he looks like a boy, but I was wondering if i could get more opinions. thanks! also just a little side note, when i hold him, he puts his tail straight and kind of wraps it on top of my hand so i was thinking he must be a boy? cause thats probably how male tortoise put their tales under the female when mating right? and also i herd about guys having a dent on the bottom of their shell for mating purposes and i cant really tell, he looks like he has a small dent but at the same time idk i feel like it'd be more dented if that was true? im sorry if i sound stupid im just trying to figure this out and i dont know how to type this to make everyone understand so please bare with me, thanks so much!

Looks like a male... Concave bottom and the tail was the give away... I'm no expert but that's what it looked like to me...
