I believe our beardie is about 3 months old, approximately 10" from nose to tip of tail, weighs 58 grams. I don't see any hemipenes, couldn't see anything with a flashlight either, but I think I see some femoral pores? Curious what people here think. I believe chicken wing is female, or is it too soon to tell?

I agree that from these pics chicken appears to be female. The stress markings can sometimes hide a slight bulge so check back again in a month or 2 but for now I'd say female.

Thank for your input. The stress marking are because chicken wing got annoyed from all the messing around with pictures, a flashlight, etc. I tried to get a picture of the flashlight through the tail, but I need a third hand lol. I definitely didn't see any hemipenes there, what really confused me is what looks like the femoral pores, here's a bit more zoomed in picture of that.

Females have femoral pores too, just smaller than males. :)
Which I read, but finding a picture of them on females proved somewhat difficult through Google. I have a lot of experience with chameleons and fish, kind of a novice still when it comes to beardies. Thanks again, I'll check again in a month or 2 and see if it's easier to tell.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
