I'm really not sure what she is!

Skin seems quite light and it's got a quite domed isn't it. I'd say Graeca rather than Ibera. Post it for Andy to definately ID.

Much lighter skin and shell markings than my morroccan graecas but the shape is very similar so on second thought Id say Graeca but since noone can say for sure then best bet is ask the Expert.
