Default P.masobe sexed

Hello,

How can I determine the sex of P.masobe?
How old do they have to be?

Have you got some pics, you could post, please.

Thanks a lot

Best regards

Stefan

There should be large hemipenal bulges at the base of the tail for a male, lacking in the females. Most Paroedura are sexable at a rather young age so if your animals are half grown and not showing bulges you likely have females.

Like Leland said.
Masobe males have big hemipenal bulges. I can sex my babies at about 3.5 months of age, but if they are over 5 or 6 months old, they should be very easy to sex.
I'm trying to find some good photos.

males:
(I only found photos of young males, so their bulges are still a bit smaller.)









females:
