lol im not really sure what my tortoise type is, i just found it my backyard, help her from my angsa lol. its a female tortoise, maybe just kampung tortoise

Hi SAMPERTH,

As promised, pls find all the attached pic.

Pls help me to sex them accurately.

Thanks a million!! 

OMG!!! Are you sure?     

All along I thought it was the opposite because:

1) That was what the seller and the vet (from zoo negara) told me;

2) Plus from the pic whereby the bigger star seemed to be raming the smaller star as well??? I attached the pic in the earlier post;

3) The anal scutes of the bigger star is a sharp v shape;

4) The bigger star has concave plastrons

On 27th July 2012, their length is 13.5cm vs 11.8 cm

On 06th March 2013, their length is 15cm vs 12.2cm

I attached another pic so that u can see the tail of the smaller star clearer.

Now I am more     

So now u r saying the smaller star is female as well? Compare to the bigger star, this smaller star has a thick tail.

How can I be 100% sure?

Sorry to bother you again.. 

7cm only...the shell still flat ...PNT got how many type ?

Systematics

This species is the only living member of the genus Carettochelys, the subfamily Carettochelyinae and the family Carettochelyidae, though several extinct carettochelyid species have been described from around the world. Some literature claims two subspecies, but a recent paper rejects this.

so thats mean.. they both are males?

u sure? bcuz i checked their cloaca.. its near to their is near to the shell.. not far apart.
and their underneath shell are flat.. not indent..
its probably too early to identify their sex..

Sifu,

Does it even possible for cross breeding between species? It is next to impossible to find Egyptian tortoise currently, and I am very sad if my tortoise have to life alone without a life partner

What is the name of this species?

Hi, I've been reading TTT thread for many years and this is my first ever post. First of all, I would like to say a big thank you for those knowledgeable and experienced hobbyists for willing to share their valuable and useful knowledge so that beginner like me can know more about how to take good care of a tortoise. This thread had taught me a lot .I am also feeling proud and glad that a lot of experienced hobbyists in Malaysia are actually breeding the tortoise. Especially for those endangered species. I really think that it is part of our job to stop the endangered species from being extinct and it is also my ultimate goal as a hobbyist. I will continue learning so that I can finally breed them one day and stop them from being extinct.
I currently having a pair of radiated tortoise. One of them is growing smoothly but the other one is having the problem of fused scutes.
The one that have fused scutes is around 8 inches long.

As for their diet, I feed them plantain, hisbiscus flower+leaves, cabbage, opuntia cactus, mulberry leaves, sweet potato leaves and sometimes carrot. I bask them on a daily basis under the morning sunlight(7-9am).

I tried to brush the fused scutes using a toothbrush everyday but nothing seem to have changed. I understand that it might be hard to recover since the tortoise is not that young anymore but I just don't feel like doing nothing and let the fused scutes to be worsen by time. Are there anything else that can be done to improve the fused scutes of my tortoise? Thank you very much

I know that feeling when you are like reply to you own post. I feel sorry about that but I can't control how people choose to post and run away. I can only assure you I won't do the same thing as they did. I will  be more than willing to share my knowledge and experiences about this species, if I have any. I am still on the process of reading all the posts in TTTthreads all over again, but this will take months.Hope I can find more information about radiated tortoise as it is one of the rare and e ndangered species.

here you go. 

okie. thank you. phew. no more worries. 

Hory shet, is that yniphora?
I have a lot more to learn until I can actually breed these rare species like radiated, yniphora etc
