Finally got a good shot of Lothar's femoral pores  Here's a zoomed version of the same shot  So Guys & Gals, what do you think? Male or female? I know it's hard to be definative from just a picture, your opinions do count for a lot though. Thanks. |

Still not sure, the region around the vent isn't very clear and its not at a good angle. I know its hard to get the perfect shot when your ig is on the move.  What is that around the vent? Is that a burn scar? |

Kind of looks like a Lothar to me, too. Still hard to tell though. It ALMOST looks like hemipenal bulges off to the end of the picturee.
It sure does look like a burn scar...

IK & PM,
It is definitely not a burn scar( unless it happened when he was freshly hatched, possible ). I believe its a piece of shed that was still hanging on. There is nothing in his enclosure he could possibly burn himself on. All lights & heaters are above a grid of 1/2" hardware cloth over his enclosure.
The picture is a bit blurred, he decided he did not want me to take pictures of his underside & was on the move when I snapped the shot

Thanks for clearing that up, just wondering about the strange coloration. I'm not sure how to do it, but, if you could get a shot where shadows will accentuate low spots, that might help us to see if that area in the center of the tail is an actual depression or if its just the pattern of the scales. How about when Lothar poops, do you see anything pink come out of the vent when Lothar is finishing? It'll look like his guts are coming out...scared the heck out of me the first time Hercules did it. DOH!!! Just hit me on how to take the photo. Take a lamp and point it so the light hits Lothar's tail directly at the side. Then, take a picture of the same region without using a flash. |

Lets have another go at it. Grabbed a new shot last night as he was hanging from the top of his enclosure playing Tarzan What do you folks think? Lothar or Lola?  This one is a bit clearer as well. |

I don't know those pores are still really tiny.
