And yeah, I got a lot of crotch shots for this one. I didn't resize them at all besides cropping the photo, my camera just sucks at taking good macro shots.
From some shots I'd lean towards female, yet after the first shot or two, it seems like there the bulge was getting more obvious? You can kind of tell in the pictures, this is all from the same gecko. Also, does it look like the gecko might have eggs in the second picture?








I did take a couple measurements for anybody that might find it useful.

Snout to tail tip length: ~6"
Snout to vent length: 3.5"
Total weight: 18.0 grams

Adult female, possibly gravid. Males have a pronounced bulge and larger spurs as well as preanal pores. Please refer to the pics i posted up on this thread:
Oedura castelnaui from Elizabeth

Lunargecko actually did link that to me. But I'm just still slightly confused. The pores kind of tell me that it's male, but then there's a lack of a decent bulge... Tempted to just say that I'll figure it out eventually and put it with a female some day. If nothing happens, I'll assume female. If I get eggs from it, I'll assume it's a male, ahaha.

At that size and weight it's full grown and done developing, no late blooming hemipenes at that point. Your gecko does not have pores, so much as "dimples" - commonly seen in many female geckos, which is why pores are not a 100% sexing method.

I'd be willing to put a pair of Phyllurus platturus on the fact that she's female.

Ahaha, alright, thank you very much then

That's a huge bet, Kevin! Phyllurus platurus have been on my wish list for ages, but I guess that Cas would be the recipient. (Maybe I can make some kind of a deal with her!) I hope that this one "turns out" male .

Really thanks for linking the thread which captures your 2006 Ocs: B1 (Larry), B3 (Moe), and C6 (Curly) at purchase in September 2007. And thanks, again, to Sarah Jean for photographing them all in Seattle!

Hey, no problem Elizabeth. They were my first Aussie geckos and still one of my favorites. I have no clue why they're not super popular like they used to be.

Perhaps the Oedura castelnaui are not so available?
