Hello all,
My girl friend and I recently purchased our first bearded dragon a few weeks ago. We were told when we first got him/her (around 8 inches long) that it was to soon to tell what the gender was. However after looking online I noticed some websites state that you can tell the gender as early as 6-8 inches in size. Our little guy/girl is now a little over 10inches long and we are still unable to tell. When we lift the tail there are no bumps at all. Does this mean it's a female or could it still be to early to know for sure? Also I thought I would add that we have tried the flash light method to see completely through our baby's genital area and there is absolutely nothing there. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. We are eager to finally know if our baby is a boy or a girl. Thanks so much in advance!

Post a few pics here with the tail arched up while he's flat on a table. Pics from straight on and also slightly from the side. The flashlight doesn't usually work with little ones.

That's a bit tricky because the stress marks [ little grey dashes + markings ] create what looks like indentation , but I'm leaning towards female. Sorry I couldn't be more help.....it may change in a month and look different, so try again in about a month.

Yes "she" is shedding I tried to not add anymore stress by lifting up her tail but we are so anxious to see what our baby is! Thank you for your help

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
