No, apparently both males. That doesn't help too much either The little 'un is apparently 11 years od and they have lived together peaceably apart from odd occasion when little 'un rams big 'un. It would have been interesting to have a shot of plastron of both.

There is a reptile place based in Scotland that have had golden Greeks for sale, I've seen the post on "the other forum" can't remember what the reptile place is called now, but I can find out, might be worth giving them a call, Gordon might know the name as well. Ill have a look on the other forum and let you know x

I have that on my females A10 as well Lynne, the name of the reptile place in Scotland is called strictly exotics and they had some fore sale in 2012, so would be worth giving them a call x
