[quote=wizzasmum;955686]Absolutely definately not a hermanni either Thh or Thb. Can't see where the thought came from TBH As mentioned several times I do not keep Graeca's so am not good at IDing subspecies of them but I would say one of the spurs and again absolutely definately not a hermanns, there is nothing there to sugest it is. Do you have a profile shot of the head at all?[/quote

Or a plastron shot

Could try and take a pic of the head shortly, would be glad to get the the bottom of this soon lol as its blinking frustrating in not knowing for sure.

A plastron shot would work wonders and rear end just in case it's a cross

In fact lots of shots from different angles!

i can't get a better pic so this is probably no good.

Head profile would have been better rather than ariel view

Plastron alone says definately not hermanni. I'm surprised Mark ID'd it as such and surprised you ID'd it against your own to be the same. If you have hermanni like that then can I politely suggest they are not

I know it is a dirty word amongst some but have you thought of asking Andy Highfield LOL?

LOL she isn't like my hermanns plaston but I only have here a horsfield, hermans and leos so not much else to go on. Ive surfed the net and seemed to have ruled out the spurrs but are the babies much the same as the adults as Ive no idea....IDing torts is not my thing as you have guessed lol...........BTW Who is Andy Highfield? I have considered her to be a cross but again i have no experience of these.
