Identifying Possible Health Concerns

[Heisei]

I'm going to look at a few beardies tomorrow. They are all over two months old (though probably no more than three) and being fed greens and roaches. I know they should be alert and curious to anyone looking at them, not be sluggish and not have a hard time raising their head. I have also read to avoid any with eye gunk. Is there anything else I should look for in determining their health? Also, is it possible to determine gender at that age, or are they still too young?

Thanks!

If they have food in the cage with them I would try to pick on that you saw eat. That is how I picked Harley because he was chasing crickets, and eating veggies. I am not for sure, but I do not think you can tell the sex of a beardie until they are a little older, and are more "developed". I could be wrong though.
