2nd pic looks female to me ... try and take some pics of the base of the tail from the top, its sometimes easier to see how far the bumps stick out that way, i sex mine by seeing how much of the bumps i can see from the top view.  _________________ Cheers

Well have a look at the close and if they are roughly the same size (gecko that is) then the difference should be obvious, large bumps sticking out for the boys, not much sticking out for the girls!
See what u can see! _________________ Cheers

Best of luck with your clutches
Thats really cool. OMG jealous
My one is only 4 weeks old and soo tiny. Can you sex then at this age? If you can and going by the little tufty bits where their testes should be im saying its a little girl. But then again with time to develop it could be a male.
When you have any of the precious little mites for sale definately let me know. I feel so sorry for her on her own being social little critters. _________________ Dante (rankins dragon)

Good luck with the wee one!
Yeah just keep and eye on those bits, they are quite different between the sexes, but hard to tell when small if like u say they are still developing.
They are tint arent they! ...
I'll be selling all my hatchlings from now on, i have 2 ready to go and another 2 ready in a couple of weeks, and hopefully if my eggs all hatch i'll be bringing a few to thw Basildon Show (if its all on still) ...
But ur right they are great to keep in groups, very social!! ...
If you dont mind me asking and pm if u like, how much did u pay for the little one?  _________________ Cheers
