Hey Frank,
Here's a pic of the gal's head. You did say that her penes were way too small to be a male. Anyway, who knows.

My son, u know, at Daytona.

I asked him what sex he thought it was, not telling him it was yours or anything about it. He said male. From that pic, I say male.

Now about the tiny penes, hahahahahahahahaha I have gone blue in the face, about he/shes and she/hes, and all such nonsense. Well what that is mostly about is when one individual of the same sex dominates another of the same sex. Instead of fighting like males do, somethings the less dominate one becomes(his b#&%H) girl like. That is never develops fully, or atrophies to a lesser state. Reptiles are known to do that, it just is not understood, how or why.

A good test monitor was pilbaras. We use to place two breeder males in one cage. Both these males had previously successful fathered clutches. One would become so female like, you would start to doubt it was ever a male, and somehow placed a female in there.

So thats my bet.

Or, your husbandry sucks so so so much you do not allow eggs. Naw, those animals look good and strong. ALSO, our croc females laid eggs a four feet total lenght. Yours have long pasted that. Yours should of had eggs or egg complications by now(if you did not have the right conditions) With that in mind. Its a male or non functional female. Same same u know. Cheers

Mike remember where you took those baby jobiensis, they have a young flawless croc how laid eggs a few times already, she’s been kept alone for a while and seems in excellent shape, mind and body. She was on deposit several months but the guy decided on something else. I wanted to take a photo for you today, forget my camera.
She would make a nice present

At this size head is useless to sex them, tail however says it all.

You could not sex these by head or measurements, however even on this crappie pick, you can see how the males tail tapers in the first 7in past vent, females don’t as they use this part to store fat.

At first I didn't understand what you meant. Now I know. Yes, Mark had been telling me about a female they had that laid eggs, but a guy had money down on her. I enquired along time about her but they assured me she was sold. I told them to get back to me if anything changed. I'll have to give them a call tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up!

seen her tonight shes perfect, Andre said she was up for sale again. I hear others want her to!

Thanks again. I just talked to Andre and bought that female. She'll be coming in a week or two when Mark comes down this way. I'll look forward to seeing her and having a new addition.
Merry Christmas!
