Hi, I think the 1st pic is female the 2nd not sure, can you try again? If they are a few months old and have had decent growth they may already be sexually mature, can you get an accurate length measurement, at least of the SV (snout to vent)?

Unfortunately I have a lot of things packed away including my lights for my pictures and other camera but I'll dig it out in a bit. For now I took some full body picks of them. They still seem fairly small to be sexually mature but idk you tell me. They are about 13" total length and about 5"-6" SV. Now I kinda feel like they aren't growing as fast as they're suppose to. Though they have doubled in size since I got them. I believe they were born in November of last year. They are pretty much always in shed and growing, fed daily, half stacked up cork bark for different lvls of basking along with deep substrate to allow for moisture at depth and to maintain burrows (though I have started taking soil out of all my enclosures to prepare for my move). Also with a 10.0 T5 fixture. Let me know what you think about their growth please now it has me thinking.
