I think all females

Sally and Sedrick T.h.b

Babs T.h.herc

I'm no expert though, just consulted Wolfgang Wegehaupt book

I agree with Alley

They are all female

Sally and Sedrick are Testudo hermanni boettgeri

Babs is a T.h.hercegovinensis

Thank you for your help, I was sure that sally and sedrick were males, maybe cause i havent got anything to compare, Although they do have longer tails than babs with a much more horny tip and they do hold their tails to the side quite often. I for got to say thier ages babs is 10 and the other two are 8. I will add some more photos over the weekend showing thier tails a bit closer. I have another 3 hermanns which i will add a tread as would be good to know thier sub species and sex. Thanks all for your help Johnathan
