These guys are awesome-just make sure it is handled alot once aquired. I would suggest taking it to a vet to get sexed and they will probably do one of two things-"pop" it where the genitalia is exposed by lifting the tail and if its a boy the organs will come out or probe it where they insert a metal tool into its rear-I am relatively inexperienced with sexing. Seeing that nobody replied I thought I would. Good Luck!
