This is my 6 yr aldabra. I suspect it is a male. If anyone can tell from the pic, that will be great!

Hi and welcome to you and your fine looking tortoise !

 

[JoesMum]

@ALDABRAMAN will be able to tell you for sure. I'm not sure how much bigger they need to get before gender is certain

It looks girly to me, but I'm not well versed on Aldabras.

Hello and welcome to the forum. I also have a young Aldabra. Aldabraman is the best source for information. Very nice person and awesome to get to know.

Nice looking Aldabra. I see you have been a member since 2014. So why haven't we seen more of this cutie . Well, Greg is the one that can help the most here. He has the most, oldest and the longest. Hopefully he will help out soon.

Looks male to me....

 

[Soefianto]

I wonder how can you tell? As I have the same problem telling mine which one is which........

 

[Drigor]

Think this is a female. Both of our to Aldabras look pretty much alike. One is 7 years old One is almost 9.

 

[Drigor]

Can you take a pic from the side...

That looks like a male tail to me. The cloaca is out towards the end of the tail. If it were female the cloaca would be more towards the body.

Looks great, love seeing this guy/gal. I look forward to seeing more!

Do know his/her weight and length?

Thanks, Ben

Count the scales between cloaca and the tail tip. Males do have 12-20 scales, female about 8-13 scales.
