Here's your pics..........and that looks like a Black Throat to me from those pics. Sorry, I'm not very good at sexing that complex in person let alone photos, but I'm sure others will be able to offer you more insight.

Best wishes,

A Blackthroat has rows of large white or yellow spots on a usually dark gray or black background with a bluish gray face and cheeks. The whitethroat is a tan to reddish brown to brown to gray background with bands or tight rows of small spots or small spots over a reddinsh background. The blackthroat can have a dark brown or blackt throat, the WT usually has a light colored throat or white.
Non the less a male albig is really easy to tell by the tail base. This one showed a large tail base at 2 feet long when I got him, my friends 2 males showed at 18 inches. Hes now 4ft long and 8lbs 12 ounces (Shadow)http://www.ssnakess.com/photopost/data/500/3213100_1530-med.JPG

Hello,

That is a Blackthroat monitor, and it is a female. If you want to breed it you will need to get a male.

She is right at breeding size in that picture too.

Good luck

Males dont just have bulges, they have BULGES!! A male albigs tail base is almost as big around as his midsection, they in fact appear to be so out of proportion that they look as if somethings wrong if you arent used to dealing with them. Ill post a female tail base pic yet also.http://www.ssnakess.com/photopost/data/500/3213100_1529-med.JPG
