This cannot be a white I as they are part of the graeca graeca species.
Or your Ibera is not an Ibera:0)
If you post a picture someone will I'd it for you:0)

I agree Mary, certainly not an ibera, but graeca graeca:0)
And agree female:0)

Suze65 08-01-2018 06:50 PM
I agree, it does look like an Algerian graeca graeca, female. I believe the term whitie is no longer recognised.

Oops just shows how out of touch I am! Definitely Algerian anyway and graeca graeca.

:-D that made me laugh!

I still have the original tortoise trust magazine about them back when they weren't glossy, just black and white(I) text, and before the web site allegedly sends them out. I was way before a certain age back then.
