As the title reads, anyone more experienced got any ideas? I was told by the person I bought it from that it was a female, around 4 - 8 months of age. However I just want to double check :)

I would say female but could you post a photo of the underside tail showing more of the cloaca/tail. Thanks.

Hi, I will say female as well. I don't really see the prominent bulging behind the cloaca that is typical in males. There seems to be more of an acute tapering seen in females. But hey, I have been fooled before even by popping. Good looking ribbon in any case.

I'd say female and a beautiful one at that.

Okay, thanks for the reply. How much more do you think she is going to grow? Is there a chance that she's full grown, do you think? :)

I'm not real familiar with T. p. orarius but I do think she has some growing to do.
