got my iguana Mr. Gordon Green Jeans Peabody Plunckett when he was almost a year old, and I was able to sex him almost immediately because he got on my couch and left me a present the day after he got home. What a nice iguana, leaving me gifts so soon after we were introduced. He has given me many gifts since, some right on top of my head. I guess he heard that protein is good for the hair.

: Well how was I suppose to know it was a joke?
: My guess is that its opposite from what the clerk told eyespy.

: I have 1 year old water monitor, that the vet said may be a female, although he said he wasnt sure, but judging by the fact when he put a q-tip up it, no hemipenes emerge. But I asked the vet that it doesnt make it a female just cause nothing emerged, and he said, nope dont mean much.
: Water Monitors dont show sex til 2-3 years old. They dont have feature characteristics. About 3 weeks ago I finally found out it was a male. The way you find out is by watching it goto the bathroom in its water and you will see two large hemipenes emerge. At first I thought the hemipenes were crap, cause it was black, unlike other reptiles which are pink.

: Just thought I would throw that little knowledge of sexing in there just in case someone gets a water monitor.
