Thanks Sharon, Carl, Darren and Pete
Carl she's my heaviest tortoise. Darren, I wish she was . I'll take a picture of her in the sun tomorrow. She's all ibera and matches the male perfectly. She has the olive base color, not yellow like whitei. Spots, instead of rays like whitei. She's from extreme eastern Turkey and matches the holotype of ibera collected in Russia. Dan
