This is my smallest one. When I got her they said she was a girl, but while looking at her belly today I noticed the same dots my boys have.... Do girls sometimes have those dots?

Sometimes girls will have to pores but never the bulges

I think the perspective of the picture makes it difficult to see if there really are bulges. The pores are not well defined at all, so I would say still possibly a female.

Maybe a picture from an angle, so we can see if there are actually bulges would help.

@Neon Aurora yea I guess you're right. Maybe another pic at a different angle/lighting will clarify

I'm really leaning male on this one, as those appear to be pores. Males take a while to develop the prominent bulges seen on full-grown adults.

Females can have the pores, but they aren't as pronounced and open. Females can also have some bulging, but males have a double bulge. We could use better pics from different angles and also the age/approx. weight of the gecko.

I've had females that look pretty male when just looking at the bulging. From that pic, I am leaning towards female, but it is not the best angle to tell.
