i am saying male, it looks like there are V shaped pores forming, and the testicles. i am no pro, but that is what i am seeing.

i would say male too... for the same reasons as above.

I need a more high-resolution shot of that area to make any more than a guess, though.

It's hard to be certain from the photo, especially given the gecko's position, but from what I can see I'd say it's female. If you can set the gecko on a flat surface, and gently lift its tail up and snap a picture from behind of the base of the tail it would be much easier to be certain. (That's just the easiest way I know of doing it while holding a camera with the other hand.)

Geckos don't have testicles. I think you mean hemipenes.

hope that helps:

Yep. I say female.

Me too.. Female.

 

[PacHerp]

ok, yeah. female. no dark pores formed at all. thanks for a closer look.

 

[Zimer]

ok thanks, there is any way that in the future pores will emerge?

error

ok, i see. the picture before the way it was turned made it look like it had 2 hemipenes:main_laugh: . but now it looks like a female. good call Paul, and thank you for the correction.

Just wanted to ad my observation.

The alleged bulges are infront of the cloaca in the first image, male's hemipenal bulges are behind it Some females have a fatty area that may appear to be hemipenal bulges also, so sexing isn't always easy on some females.

As we already know, FEMALE for sure.
