After reading Dr. Dans gecko sexing 101 I still can't get it right. Please tell me what sex this D. tesselatus. I bought it as female but am unsure. These are the best pictures I can get with my camera.

Just a little info, it is about 70 to 75 cm(2.75-3 in) total length. I can see no sign of a bulge but think I keep seeing the clocal spurs. Is this specimen large enough to determine sex. Thanks in advance.

I would think female. Females have small spurs. A males spurs would be very obvious in an animal of that size.

Thank you for all the replies and not just because it is what I wanted to hear. I just didn't know how big they are full grown. I knew they where close to full grown but I was scared that this was a imature male that was going to drop its buldge any day. Oh, Manfred I didn't need the link to those pictures of your D. tesselatus. I have looked at those pictures three or four days in a row now, they are absolutely stunning. I just hope you are willing to ship to Canada. Again thanks for the replies.
