I am confused again , anyone have a stab at sexing mine.
Believe a proper male as trying to do the biz lately to the other two. 5 years 13cms




The two that don't seem interested.
7 years 12.5 cms




Last one thinking female 5 years 11.5 cms




Thank's for looking.

as you know, I'm not great at this at all but I'd put money on 1 being male and 3 being female. I'm not so sure about number 2 because it's tail is pointing towards the lens and can't really see how big it is because of the angle but even so, and comparing it to number 1, I'd still put cash on it being female

No 3 Female look's like.
Also a couple of years ago No2 was trying to do the biz/motions with 1&3, see confusing. A bit like the ancient Roman's out goes.

I'd agree, 1 male, 3 female and 2 also most likely female, but again hard to be 100% really

Their Nuchal scutes look sideways thats really cool, I like wonky scutes. Norman has a mini 4th vertebral scute which made my OH pick him from the other hatchlings.
