Hey

I have four leopard geckos. The little albino is to small to be sexed and the one that will let me pick her up is either female or too young to be sexed. Now my other two just go crazy when i try to look at their undersides or when i try to pick them up. I think the two of them are ready to be sexed but they dont want to be. Im worried because i dont want to house two males together and not nkow about it the whole time. So if any of you guys have a way of sexing them that doesn't invlove taking them to the vet and paying expensive vet bills i'd really appreciate it because i dont want them to kill eachother.

Thanks

Matt

That's how I do mine :) Put them in a clear container (kritter keeper, rubbermaid, etc), and take a look from underneath :) Much less stressful for them (and you!)...

Im not sure how old they are because the guy at the pet store didn't know and the the other two that I got at the reptile show, one of them is old enough but the other is to small
