: Ok, so a couple weeks ago I noticed that my Russian might be a boy due to the longer tail. Then I remembered about the curveture of the under shell that males have... and she definately does not have that. And then I looked at the drawings Andy posted and she most definately fits the female picture
: so my question is 2 out of 3 for female... is that what you guys would guess?

I do know for sure that in the case of Russians, males do not have the concave (curved) plastron that males of other species have. Both male and female Russians have flat plastrons, so that observation doesn't help.
