 Male or Female??

Hi eveyone....

This is my new MHD Zeek. He/She is my first reptile... and for the last month they’ve held up very well... active, eating great and very social.

I have done a ton of research online and have found this to be the very best of owner input.

Could anyone tell me how old, what breed of MHD and what the gender is of Zeek?




Thanks so much for your help!!!!! (=

I believe its a male ... if you compare it to the other posts on the site that’s it what it appears to be. He’s a real beauty, and they are lots of fun

Hmm it’s kinda hard to tell! From the top view it looks female to me, but from the under the tail view it looks more male... hopefully bonnie will take a look and reply, but I definatley agree that he/she is a beauty! It looks pretty young, definatley under a year I’d say...
I’m glad you found this site, I got all my info here and on froggieb’s site when I got my first MHD, and it was so helpful. They are awesome pets, I’m glad you are having such good luck with your new guy. I would say you were probably fortunate enough to get a captive bred one?
And I love the name zeek!

I was undecided but going towards male also. It is young. Give it some more time. If it’s male that bulge will continue to grow and show itself. It’s a very nice dragon.

Agreed with Bonnie. You’re not going to know for certain until he/she grows out. Mine was a female until it was about 10". lol.

Hey Trav. My male laid eggs. They can be tricky when young.

Thanks for all the input everyone....

I have another question..... My MHD has no horns on his head like a lot of the lizards have that I’ve seen pics of on the net. Will those also come with age or does his particular species just not produce them?

Also, what specific species does my MHD look like from the pictures you’ve seen?

Thanks again-






PS... here’s a few new pics....

That’s a capra. It’s a little bigger than I thought so the possibility of a female is good. It should have horns or at least nubs. There are factors that lead to the horns dropping off. Shipping is one of them.
