Female hermanni boetgerri, you can tell its older- as when they get old the black on the shell draws more towards the edges of the scutes- and has less black on it.
Shes lovely!!!

tell me about it, i fell in love with her.
She gets to live in the garden when weather is nice so in the summer she has a good life but when the weather is bad (more often than not here) she lives indoors with no uv source/ no heat source/ iceberg lettuce and rare baths.
