If Quick is 24 lbs, he has probably already shown you an indication that he is a masculin child, as the Godfather would say. I think Nikki graced us with a defining picture of Teddy's manhood if you need to reference what this weirdness looks like. If Doris is only 3lbs, then you may have another year or two to wait before you know for certain if you will have to rename her Boris. Chanel started out as my little petite princess baby girl and then I had a RUDE awakening one day and Chanel is DEFINITELY a male. . . then a year later, Angel Baby Girl had to be renamed Albrecht!! Just go with the flow and have a few gender-non-specific names ready in case you are dealt an interesting surprise!!

: I have 2 sulcattas, the older Quick (24 lbs.) is supposed to be male and the younger Doris (almost 3 lbs.)I was told is female. There is quite a difference in size and age. How can I tell the sex of each? I worry that Quick could become aggresive toward her. So far the only rough play I have seen has been during feeding.
