Default got a problem

So i went to the all state ohio reptile show today to look for a female crested gecko. Unfortunately I forgot my hand lens I found a few good females then I ran across a young red crestie for 75 to good to be true. The breeder has sexed as a female as far as I could tell at the time it was to. I get home and am examining closer and i noticed small pores .

That sucks. Getting in touch with the seller would be my only advice. Either an exchange or refund, assuming the sex was guaranteed.

Could they be pseudo-pores? Some females do have them...just a thought.

I would get another cage/tank and put it in there if it's a great gecko and you are willing to do that, that is what I am going to do if I have 2 males

Sometimes people get things wrong...everyone makes mistakes. A good breeder will talk things through with you though and work something out.
