Sexing a year and a half year old tegu.

So I'm still not 100% sure if Connor is in fact a boy. I'll have had him for a year in February and I still cant tell for sure if he's male or female. I havent gotten to witness any sperm plugs and I cant quite hold him still long enough to be able to check for buttons, but I think hes starting to develop jowls.

Certainly has a male shaped head.

Here's some other pictures that I took.

FEEL for buttons rather than try to see them, that may be easier if hes squirmy.

Alright so for the first time I'm about 99.9% that he is indeed a boy because I couldn't really see anything but I felt two little pimple like things on each side next to the vent, so I'm pretty positive at this point.

sounds boy if thats what your feeling.
