So, I ordered my beardie online about a month ago...The sex was undetermined as I was told that the beardie was initially a probably female, but she thought that she was turning into a he. She has sexed many beardies, but this particular one is extremely difficult to tell. He/she has grown a decent amount within the month...dealt with a little upper RI for a couple weeks though 
....but all is good now.
He or she is approximately 12+ inches long and 70-80 grams...was 70 grams about a week ago.
Behavior wise, he or she is very aggressive...not mean, just seems to have some tenacity....naturally I wanna be say its a boy! haha, but obviously all beardies have a range of personalities.
One particular behavior i noticed is when he or she is within sight of my other baby male housed above "SHIM" thats his or her name lol. The little baby "Rusty" Who already seems to have his 2 bulges is only 7-8 inches long...so tiny compared to SHIM. Anyways...to the behavior. Rusty will puff up and do somewhat of a medium paced push up/head bob...quite funny as he looks like he thinks he has absolute power...quite the stare down lol. Shim on the other hand, just sits there and stares at him. No head bob...no signs of anything...just stares. Maybe Shim has no reaction because Rusty is so tiny?...I was thinking that this may be a sign that Shim is a she.
Anyways, i'm posting a few pics of SHIM....I'll try to get a good "under tail" pic tomorrow (sleeping at the moment)...and Shim has gotten a little skittish due to his baytril medication that he or she absolutely hated...so I've been trying to be nice and rebuild that bond. Also, the vet...(kstate small animal clinic...so, not sure on credibility) thought Shim was a male due to his or her scent glands...but i've read that it's not just males that have them.
First week I had him or her...
More recent pic...males usually have bigger heads, though not always the case?...also reading females have thicker tails?
Next two are basking pics! lol
