I keep looking at the pic you posted below of your 8 mos. old agrus, and I'm try to discern the secondery characteristics.

Here's a link to the pic you posted:

The only thing that really stood out to me was how robust the male's hind legs were.

As you said before time is the best tool, but I like to figure things out. So, if there's anything else you could point out, I'd appreciate it.

I did say I was horrible with sexing gouldii complex. I was also by no means 100% sure of the sexes at that point.

Really, I think I would be misleading you to give you any specifics, other than males look male and females don't. Wait till it gets in the 2.5 to 3' range and it should be a bit easier. Post pictures and the true experts can give it a go. Sometimes keeping monitors is all about waiting, concentrate on letting it grow.

Don't look to hard at the pictures, it'll only confuse you. It's better to see known sex monitors in person to compare. In the end eggs are the dead give away.

Good Luck,
