That's fine...lol. I mentioned my sully tail because I never kept one before and found it interesting you noticed the difference in the two male differences as well. Wasn't correcting you or anything.
I just felt like we were going back and forth as if I had done something wrong, haha. Thanks for your input, yours along with the rest helped me find out that she is in fact a she and not a male.

Oh no, I have only one sulcata and one redfoot so I was just finding g the discussion interesting. I know both mine are male because they are proud of themselves...lol. but yeah, my redfoots tail is a lot bigger than the sully and he is more concave.

A very pretty tort! :tort: GOD bless.

Notice, I said "pretty" not "handsome", as I too think it is a female.;)

I was having doubts with this one. I thought it was male. The photo doesn't do the very large tail any justice. N2torts said it was female. She dropped 5 eggs 2 wks ago.

Late to the party. First pic-female and the one on the second page-male.

Thanks! Yes, I knew the second one was male - he's bred with my other females quite a number of times. Guess he's still my only male then, haha. He has 4 females and will have his 5th after this big girl is done with quarantine.
