Crested Gecko Help

[geckomannn]

Hey guys i have a new crestie on my hands. He/she is about 5 inches long (give or take) and about 3 inches Snout to vent. He/she is about 6 to 10 grams but i don't know how accurate the scale I use is. Can anyone tell me what his sex is? And possibly if he is a morph of some sort. Any help is appreciated.

Also any name suggestions?

A little small.. But, I would say female at this time.

Any idea on the age? It's hard to tell the just yet as males will develop a bulge as they gain weight and females won't. I thought I had two females on my hands until around 20 grams when, how do I say this, her balls fell lol. We won't know for sure until it gains more weight.

It is possible to sex with a loupe at that size, but I wouldn't expect confirmation til at least 12 grams, 15+ to be certain. And that is based on presence or absence of pre-anal pores.
I can't see them here, but s/he is too small and the pics are not in focus.

I got it from a local pet store but I'd say about 4 to 6 months old but I'm not certain

Weight is more important than age for sex determination.

Also if it's from a pet store keep an eye on s/he's appetite as they may have parasites. But as aimee said you cancheckmwith an eye loupe but upwards of 15g will defy give you a better idea of sex.
