I have a leo that I got on August 4th. The people that I got her from had her since December 2008, she was a hatchling when they purchased her from a local pet store - so I'm going to guess that she is between 9 and 10 months old.
Gus weighed 14 grams when I got her and weighs 20 grams today. I'm pretty sure that a 9-10 month old geck should weigh more than that
- but hey, I could be wrong.
I am 100% sure she is female, but does an underweight male leo develop the pores and noticable hemipene bumps, or will these become more noticable after he puts on weight?
Some private part pics as reference
(looks flat, but a slight bump here - it's too far forward to be the hemipene bump, right?)
Gus was very green when I got her, but she's shed once and getting bright yellow. Her tail went from black and grey/white to a nice lavendar and light grey. I'll throw in some body and face pics, I think she is beautiful! I wish I would have photographed her next to something for scale, she's very small.
