Here is a pic of my new aft next to my adult female. I can't get a good pic to sex her. I was hoping someone could help me. She or he is 30 grams unknown age. I know my adult is a female and 55 grams. I have had her 1.5 years and she was about 6 months old when I bought her. Here they are...

First, are they being quarantined?

As for sexing, take a look at your known female. Then take a look at the new gecko. If it is similar to the first (no prominent pores or hemi-penal bulges) then it's a female. At 30 grams the gecko should be easy to sex.

She has lived with my coworked for over 2 months now. They were together just for this pic for like 5 mins and I am getting a fecal on her just to be sure. But her fecal looks to be healthy already got one just have to call the vet. But she is being kept in a 10 gallon tank in a diff room then my other geckos. And after each handling I do wash my hands but I trust my coworkers. And she is very healthy fat tail. I just want to be 100 percent sure. And then my new male I am getting for these two females (found out it is a female) will be kept at my moms but I am not to worried about a fecal. He is coming from JMG. But thanks. I know all about what can happen. I have 12 leos right now and many other geckos. But thanks!

Just because he's coming from JMG doesn't mean that he shouldn't be quarantined and have fecals done. I got a gecko from a very trust worthy breeder from this very forum and he tested positive for pin worms. Non of my other geckos had pin worms so it did not come from my group. They all get tested twice a year. Because he was quarantined I only had to treat one gecko instead of multiple geckos. I have no gripe with that breeder especially since pin worms are easy to deal with. I would still buy from that person again.
