I received these cacti from a local friend that grows cacti, he doesn't know the names of these and he also forgot were he got the seeds from. these are seed grown.

They are opuntia but these are so many i couldn't tell u which one, is a little stretched causing it to look misshapen but that could be from the lack of light During/ after germination. I would suggest putting it in a very sunny window (after u slowly introduce stronger light) so it can start growing pads on its body and you can propagate them so you can have another one or two to see what they look like with good sun an care. Good luck on the id hun!

haha thank you. but yeah I think they are alittle elongated because the grower had soooo many he had no room in his greenhouse and thus causing shade. but yeah hopefully I get another pad and grow another replica of it just in cas, I do hope they are cold hardy though.

Most Opuntias are cold hardy if dry, but a plant in a pot can never stand as much cold as it could growing in the ground.

Yeah, get these little guys in some good light and grow them on for a while, you'll have a much better chance of IDing them.

I agree with greenknight opuntas especially in terracotta pots are not that happy in the cold weather as
In the ground where the roots can stay warm in the deep soil.

And do as greenknight says and they will grow big and healthy and pup out in no time
