My first inclination was girl because my boy's pores are bigger than what I see in Twink's scan. But then again he has that waxy build-up now (see xta's ? re same LOL)so I can't say for sure. So.....I made my hubby come look at Twink's underside LOL LOL He says "That's a boy."

But then I went back and looked at your photo album to see the whole iguana as it were. And what I see is that T doesn't have the two "bumps" on the head that I'm used to seeing in males nor does T have the larger dewlap in comparison to the female.

Which made me think I was right in my theory that it was a girl iggy.

BUT.....I also know that this little thing had not had an ideal beginning in life til you came in to it and that could cause stunting of all aspects I think.

My eldest son said for me to tell you: "Wait a couple of years and if it lays eggs it's a girl." Gee, so wise for a 15 y/o *grin*

What I AM going to go do some time to day is hoist Lightning up and take a look at HER pores. Not only has she laid eggs twice but she's been spayed so I know for sure that she is a girl *grin"

Then I'll give you my final answer. For now tho, I'd say girl.
