Western or Eastern Hermann tortoise?

[Cerys92]

Hello
I was just wondering if anyone could help me identify what kind of Hermann I have. I've always assumed he was an Eastern but he has yellow cheeks, under his eye. I've been told this is a characteristic of the western Hermann.
Would be great if some one could help
Thanks in advance, Cerys.

Eastern my friend . Some Easterns exhibit yellow cheeks just usually not to the degree of a western.

Byron is right. 100% Eastern. Westerns look much different and all young Hermann's typically have the yellow sub ocular spot.
