That is a male in post 20. It's out further than a females and the shaft is thicker than a females would be.

Yes, thats what I mean, the male in the link is huge compared to the post 20 one (I feel sorry for the post 20 one!) it is a good job that the female doesnt really see whats coming (so to speak )

That's my Herbie in post 21. What you saying about his manhood?

That was when he was putting it away, I had to run and get the camera and when I got back that's all that was left.

Believe me, he's a big boy, probably bigger than the male in the other picture, Herbies is the size of an elephants. Ner Ner.

Well I'm not sure what to trust right now

Behaviour wise Morla is still making unwelcome overtures on Nellie, trying desperately to bite her forelegs and quite enthusiastic in the pursuit.

Bits wise I saw Morla yesterday with it out and unable to walk, stilt legged as 'he' was, without dragging it, or pushing it really. Was at least 4cm beyond the tail.

And of course the vet pointed out they could always be hermaphrodites.

For now I've just gotten used to saying he so I'll stick with that for now
