    How old is it?

    Post some pics (tail and underside) and we can see if we can sex it for you.

    I wouldn't think about breeding until you had a few years experience under your belt.
    Check out this site for more russian tort info http://www.russiantortoise.org/breeding.htm

    Honestly, I wouldn't start breeding until you know how to sex them without difficulty
