It will get bigger, just females don't tend to get a bulge at all, and you can see a slight bulge on there.

Hahaha, I dunno really, I did read somewhere that little or no bulge meant female and huge bulge was male. I guess I was hoping it was a little bulge.

Well perhaps see what others have to say about it? Though I think its male..
There's other ways to check.. by looking at spurs and/or pores near their back end or something Confused but I have no idea how to do that and I wouldnt really advise anyone to go probing around near their cresties tails unless you want them to drop them!

that's a stunning looking crestie!!! it is looking like a male though.

I got your email, all I can say is search the classifieds, there was an advert yesterday for a female but not many details up.

I've no 100% females available, I'll be taking some photos of the first of this years young ready for sale on Wednesday, so hopefully upload them on my site Thursday Wink

Haha, guess who's got herself into the same situation with 4 of the little munchkins Rolling Eyes Laughing

You'd think out of four unsexed juvies, the law of averages might dictate a female in there somewhere....but no Rolling Eyes Bulges galore!!!
