Identification, please help.
Hi Guys,
This is my first post but I guess I will be a very active member . I live in Malta and bought those 4 cute babies form a local breeder. They are 4 months old now. He has owned their parents for 15 years now and can not tell me what exactly supspecies they are. For geographical proximity to Tunisia I suspect they might be Furculachelys Nabeulensis, but the best would be to consult it with a wider group of ppl who are familiar with this subject. Pics below. |

stunning babys.
1 concern is the rock in the first pic well supported would hate for it to fall onto one of the babys. |

Thank you for the compliments
The rocks are light, limestone ones, well supported. At the moment my babies got a new tort table and the cave is even more solid. They must feel save now because a few last nights spent in open area of their habitat, just next to the basking lamp (it is off for the night obviously). I hope they will coexist in a friendly atmosphere, so far so good |

Pictures of the parents is the only real way to tell what subspecies they are
