Gender and type question

Morte_The_Skull Oct 16, 2004 03:09 PM

I was wondering, can anyone determine the gender of my Gecko? Also, it's not by any chance any type other than the most common one, is it? (knowing my luck, I doubt it is. Oh, and my photography skills are not very good)

You cant really tell from pictures of the top. Its pretty simple to sex them, just flip it over and look for a row of preanal pores, if it has them its a male and if not its a female. try this page out

That should help you. As far as a morph go's it looks like its just a normal phase, sorry mate

Thanks a bunch, it's a girl, it seems. Poor, poor gender confused Flippy. I've been using masculine pronouns when referring to it for years.
