Other Turtle Discussion :: African Sideneck gender

[iac637]

As everyone knows we recently got a large sideneck that I know is a male (no doubt in my mind). We also recently got another sideneck that is 4 in and has a much much shorter tail. I am almost sure it is a female but I can not find a picture that will help me identify if it is a female. If anyone knows a site that will help me let me know please. I will also try to post pictures of them.
