Male right female left.

There has however been a debate about this male being 100% tunisian. But Andy highfeild had Id him as tunisian. They are not kept togther.

Was just wondering that Sarah From the plastron I'd say he wasn't a Tunisian. Looks more like Moroccan T.g.graeca. to me.

I know Dan he is a hard one. He lives with 2 other boys. I do not allow him to run with the female tunisians due to not been 100% sure.
