Sexable?

Skits Feb 09, 2004 10:28 AM

Hey all, I got a Leopard gecko in January, and i'm guessing it was a month or so old when the pet store got it, putting it at 2-3 months old by now. The little guy is growing really fast, and it's tail has fattened up. I was just wondering since this little guy or girl has grown so fast, would it be sexable by now? Here is a pic or it, I'm new to Leos but i did the research and i know how to tell if an adult is male or female, just don't trust my judgement with babies. Thanks for the help

definatly not sexable yet..it usually takes up to 7 months befor they can become sexable unless you hatched it yourself

not sure if the thing that looks like small hemipenes is the hemipenes or the tail.

I would guess female, but it is a little to early to really tell.
