This just came in today.. Doesn't seem to have any health problems going for it, but I'll be checking it out further tomm.....
I'm thinking RUSSIAN TORTOISE. Anyone have any input on this/think it is something else or a RUSSIAN ?

That's a cute tort. It does look like a Russian to me, but for some reason, the appearance of the head seems different than the Russians I've seen before. Maybe it's a Greek tort, or an ugly Russian. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Russian torts have four claws and a long tail. Their other commmon name is four toed tortoise, so it can help a bit. A greek should have spurs, as i recall, and the russsians don't.

YUP..It's not a russian tort..I found them lil ole spurs on the hind quarters [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img] It's got the 4 claws, tail..hmmm..gonna have to check out the length a bit closer I think. I sent the pics off to someone who has been working with chelonians for awhile and they should be getting back to me shortly. ..BUT ffrom what i told em on the phone..had just discovered them spurs... they believe it is a GREEK tort. I'll know more later on it.
