Posted: Mon Jun 23, 2008 6:05 pm Post subject: Sex of young Crestie |
|
|
Hi everyone,
Got an 11 month old Crested Gecko and trying to work out what sex it is for definite. There's no sign at all of any bulge, but got a couple of pictures here of the areas where pores should be if it's male. I can't see any myself, but just wanted some other opinions. They're a bit blury, but I had to zoom in a bit as they weren't close enough.
So has anyone got any opinions on them?
Anyway, here they are: _________________ 1.1.1 Crested Geckos

Okay will do, it wont be until tonight though as it's my dad's camera and he's the only person who knows how to use it properly. I think it may have a macro lense which would definitely help.
But yeah, I'll get a few more tonight.
Thanks,

Mate, I don't mean to sound like I'm having a go at you or anything as from pics I've seen all your cresties seem to look in good health. But you really need to get some scales sorted (especially with you breeding them) you need to keep on top of weights - especially the females.
As for the pics, I can't really tell either. At 11 months if you can't see pores then I'd be pretty sure it's female though. |

Yes i agree with all that Phil has said.
But the reason i need weight is because an 11 month old cresty can weigh 10g and there is still PLENTY of time for him to develop _________________ Regards, Paul.
