Are you thinking T.h.b ON?

Looks like there is a inguinal scout.

From that picture could as well be THHermanni or THBoettgeri ..
Plastron dark coloring looks THH.
Inguinal shield ( allthough small) is present.
Diff. in size between femoral/pectoral scutes does imo
not clearly indicate its a THHerc.
Owner says its growth is superior to other herc males !
that is one thing pointing away from THHerc.

But its a herman male
