The most recent growth spurt our Penelope has experienced has me wondering whether SHE might actually be a HE.
I'm very familiar with sexing RTs, but leopard torts not so much.
Help please?
S/he is 1653g as if today, and 8.5" SCL.
Would love your input... @Tom?
Here is a top view - the marginal scutes by the back legs have really flared, too, in the last months.
(Yes, she is pyramided... from the time before she came into our care a couple yeas ago. New growth is smooth though!)
