: I think Columbus is reaching maturity at the moment. He's 8 months at the moment and this morning I received my first Head Bob from him! All I could do is laugh at him. It looked so funny, my little baby acting big and tough!
: Tail whipping he hasnt done yet, but the occasional tail 'wagging' has happened!
: What age should I be able to determine his/her sex?

I didn't know Max was a "boy" until he was about l8 months old (he's 20 months old). He has very small femoral pores on his thighs and a small head, so I thought it was a girl. Two months ago, he started getting jowls, his dewlap is large and his pores enlarged. He is also "displaying" that he is a male. I believe I read males have a bulgy area around their vents because that's where there hemisphenes are located. Check this out though, in case I'm not totally correct.
