So I got my fat-tail, and he's gorgeous! Quick question, though. :)

But the his/her sex is still undetermined. I took him to the pet store that I work at, and my reptile guy said female. But from looking online and reading that sexing FT and sexing leopards are the same, and from seeing pictures from males and females, he looks totally male to me. I wanted to get another female [because I'm just in love with AFT's, and because usually females can live together] but I don't want to cause her any stress just in case this one's a male.
So here's a stupid question: Can somebody please post a picture of the underside of their MALE fat tail gecko?
On mine, I can see definite pores in that V shape, but my reptile guy says DEFINITELY girl. I'm new, so I'm not going to count on my opinion, I just want to make sure.

Thanks so much!

yes please post a picture.

With fatties, females can sometimes have more defined pores than leopards..but they will not have bulges.

I tried taking a picture but they all came out badly. Could someone please post a ventral shot of a male so I can compare?
