HELP Does anyone have "the herpetoculture of Leopard Geckos"

[gko reptiles]

Hey guys I sold a lot of geckos to this one guy and he is saying the males are not males because they don't have bulges. I use a loupe and examine very closely the pores just to be 100% correct. I'm trying to explain this to him but having no luck. I was going to scan the pages from Trempers book that talk about magnifying the pores but I can't find my book. If anyone has the book and a scanner will you please send me the pages. Thanks everyone.

I have a different book that shows it, but it's at my apartment and I won't be there until Wednesday or Thursday. I have found some sites that say/show. Here are some I just found again real quick.

This is not the book but it has the pictures you need.

How To Determine Sex In Leopard Geckos

Albey those are some GREAT pictures!

I love the pictures too, they are really neat!

Excluding the pre-anal pores, I noticed that the pores in the female baby are far more prominent than the male's. Maybe it's because the female is bigger?

By the way, I already sent them the pictures they needed from the book, so there's no need for other person to scan them

Hi together!
By the way, has anyone good tipps how to sex junveniles? I've tried it several times with a real good 10x magnifier, but I cannot hold myself to see preanal pores in every of my geckos^^.. I cannot say if there is just a hint of pores, or if there are real male pores, although I read trempers book.
What tools do you use for sexing? Has anyone photos form juveniles pores? (not the pics on ron trempers book)
kind greetings, rebecca

That's the problem. Sometimes you cannot tell if they are the pattern of pores or actual pores until they are older. There isn't much you can really do to tell on a juvenile. I wish there was, I don't know my leo's sex either.

I think it's something like 15-20 grams is when you will be able to sex via the pores, other wise you can only temp sex them.
