sexing babies

Hi All
this is my first post and not sure how it all works. I have some young Graecas and would like to know how long it would be before i can sex them. Would the tail of a female bend towards the side at all, (i mean very slightly) or would they never.

Thanks Perry

Yes far to early some people can have a guess in a few years time but that will only be a guess.

We would still love to see pictures and if you are having trouble please email me at blondesarah@hotmail.com
