Yep that's how quickly they can go from being female to male.....my Ari was female one day and 2 weeks later a male! Lol x

I would still be guessing a female.

emma_mcraf · 28-09-2013, 08:35 PM

I'd say male, going on the size of the tail.

NATURALIS · 28-09-2013, 10:16 PM

yep deff male

The tail is biggish, but it is 'fat' only at the part close to the body. Near the end of the tail it is still quite thin. My Hermanni Hermanni male has fat tail on the whole length. My hermanni females have (most of them) short tail, but one of them has longer one but fat only the part near her body, the end is very thin.

Although yours may be getting through the transition and still may get fatter even at the end.
