Sexing Viper Geckos

lovelyleopards Jan 27, 2004 05:45 PM

Anybody have any good quality sexing pics of Teratolpeis fasciata? I bought what is supposedly a 1.2 trio last weekend (juvies), and I'd like to confoirm that they are what they're supposed to be. I see very little difference in any of the 3. Thanks!

I had the same problem at one time. When they are about 2.5 inches you can see hemipenal bulges in males (females have a bulge, but you will be able to see the difference). You really cannot see preanal pores until around 2.25 inches. You will need a good magnifying "glass."
