The males of this kind of tortoise, which is called "H. signatus", measure 6–8 cm (2.4–3.1 in) in straight carapace (that means cover of the shell) length, while the larger females measure up to almost 10 cm (3.9 in). The tortoises weigh about 95–165 g (3.4–5.8 oz). Comparing to George and Martha: 
George measures from head to tail 13 centimeters and Martha measure from head to tail, 17 centimeters. It's interesting that the girls are bigger than the boys!
