Is it just me or do boys have sharper teeth than girls?!

Do males have sharper incisor like teeth? Just wondering, our boys have accidentally gotten me a couple times while hand feeding them (my fault) and they usually make me bleed a tiny bit, yet my female has missed the food and nipped me a few times full on mouth and its never left a scratch. :lol:

Hello . I don't think so but I have never been bitten by either one of mine.

With mine ill offer them food, they'll half take it, then try to eat the entire thing in one bite suddenly and sometimes get my fingertips. :lol:

Their teeth are equally sharp, but typically males have a stronger bite.
At least that's the personal experience I had :roll:

Dunno, but the one time my male dragon bit me as an adult while I was hand feeding him, it did result an injury more akin to lacerations than punctures. He got a cricket AND my finger, so he kept biting thinking that it was a tough cricket. Oh, there was also a bruise underneath my fingernail where his teeth pattern was visible until it finally grew out. :lol:

Lol! Maybe it is that boys have a stronger bite. Though when ours got me, it left 4 little puncture marks on my finger like they have tiny incisors near the front of their mouth, maybe for holding females during mating?

And ouch! Boyfriends big beardie (Beardie, I know so clever) mistakes my smaller fingers for baby carrots occasionally.. :lol: He's an old fella though so he gets a break. Heck hes had senile moments where he walks off the side of the couch...in which case results in both the boyfriend and I frantically diving to catch him. Pretty sure he knows we'll catch him so he isn't too concerned about falling.
