Sexual Identity Crisis-Help?

ok well when i first brought simon home, we figured female. now shes gotten a lot bigger and im starting to think male. im not seeing any "boy bumps" but she is really getting a crest on her. the eye markings are dark, and the chin is orange/red/blue. i know some females show male signs, but this is getting confusing. lol. what do you guys think?

yeah looks male 2 me.

Anyways, you need to post a pic of the vent and pores on the undersides of the back legs. you can just lift the tail up also and snap a pic of the bumps.

Some female have a high crest and black eye stripe..I’m sticking with female..she doesn’t have the body shape and features of a male...

Go look at Finners profile in her pictures....Rogue and Stormie are female and they have high crest...My Morkie & Molly don’t have a high crest but they have got the black eye stripe.....

Morkie’s on the bottom then Molly and Milly in the back and Skittles is the odd ball...LOL...

I’m sticking with female....

well thanks. ive looked under the tail. on the belly side of the tail is 2 bumps with the triangle between them. but on the underside of the tail it is completly void of bumps. i know from my male iggy that the boy parts are on the underside of the tail. but the pores are small. i will get pics up when we get settled. tomorrow is the last day of moving. yay! but simon is my hunny no matter what sex. but i do love the big beautiful crests on the boys. tee-hee

heres 2 lumps on either side of the tail positively identifying this as a male
see the highlights and shadows under the tail? perfect lighting to show the lumps/cone shape hemi pinal bulges

its a frill dragon

lack of lumps on this tail shows possible female, but not 100% sure untill 12-24 months of age. could really take that long to find out sometimes :)
