My blue tegu “Chance” is roughly 9mo old to a year..When I got him back in April I was told he was 6-9months old and was still too soon to tell the gender. I uploaded a few very recent photos of Chance, Any opinions? Male or female?

I'm guessing it's a female, just because it doesn't have that large scale by the cloaca . Or have it probed at a Reptile Store. Also, Do a search on youtube for "how to sex a tegu by Rose City Reptiles? They show a couple of ways to sex a tegu while still young including looking for the scale I was talking about.

I unfortunately had no luck getting him probed at a local reptile store..

You don't need to probe a tegu!! Feel on both sides of coclia if its male, you will feel a beebee sized bump on both sides

This is my Red tegu which we call “Big Red” or sometimes biggie red just thought I’d share considering your username
