It's not a Tunisian greek. I looks like a Syrian Antakyan greek, T.g.antakyensis.

Really? I deeply thought she was a tunisian because there were many tortoises where I got her from and they all looked the same.. So I thought they must have been brought from the same place, meaning all of them would be the same species.

Thanks a bunch!

Would she be able to pair up with a yellow antakyan male when she grows up?

Hey Danny,

I'm surprised that you have told me that this is an antakyan because this is the image I have of an antakyan and they do not look alike...



Maybe when she grows she will look like this? By the way, do you think that this tortoise that I have posted right now will be the perfect pair for her when she grows up? What do you think?

Thanks.

Thats an old worn male, thats why he looks like that, but he would be fine to pair up with that female once she's bigger.
