Hey guys, a friend of mine is babysitting a tortoise. The family said they've had it for 15 years and don't know what it is. It's about 8" scl. I'm thinking it's a Texas Tortoise.
I'm beginning to wonder if I have this one exactly right Can you post a plastron picture Matt? I'm thinking in a slightly different direction and I think you might be half right Art.
That would be Sonoran desert
It has an extra dorsal scute, huh? I wondered why the carapace looked a little different in the first picture. Cute baby picture. Doesn't look like agassizii or berlandieri, but it has a big head like the Texas torts. It will be interesting to see what Danny has to say about this tortoise. Where did your friend get it?
