i have a a 2ish year old tort, how can i tell if it is male or female??

i know about the concave of the shell underneath but was wondering if i could tell another way as this has not happened yet?

thanks

He/she is too young to tell for sure unless it's a male and has flashed at you or is grossly overgrown, in which case it is just possible. The concave plastron is not a reliable source and does not apply to all species. What species is yours?

hi it is a horsefield.

Male horsfields don't have a concaved plastron, can you post some pictures perhaps of the tortoises tail area and possibly its vent,

post pics of its underside near it's tail

Was just going to say this Darren<g>
