So it doesn't go:
Big spurs = Male.
Small spurs = Female.

I would say that isn't 100% reliable mate... _________________

my first male mojo was bought as a female. i always thought it wasnt right as the spurs were large. i was proved right. she turned out to be a he! its as reliable as probing. _________________

It can certainly be a good indicator like tails etc but no guarentee... _________________

as good a gaurantee as probing. my mojo probed female but is a male. i 'guessed' bu tail shape and scale count, the corns and was 100% right. theu are easier to sex than royals though. _________________

best way i find is to probe , popping when young is easy too , but somestimes the spurs on older males can be "worn" down a bit . (too much hanky panky lol). _________________ 0.3.0 beardies Cheech II, Chong , Melody RIP Cheech I { 9/4/08}

thats an opinion rather than a fact! |
no its a fact. i knew he was a male before my friend even told me. dont argue with a woman!!! _________________
