hi Alicia they look like pardalis babcocki the same as Bobby the way to tell for sure is from the hatchlings do you have a picture of Tiny Willys carapace alhtough im sure i remember he was the same as Bobby.

They are all Stigmochelys pardalis babcocki, Alicia
The 2 subspecies can live together, but why would you want to chance cross breeding as S.p.pardalis is relatively rare in captivity. Danny
