Meet Hercules

[Hercules]

Hi everyone! My name is Tyler, I'm new to this site and I just got my first beardie Hercules on Monday June 25th! Hercules is only a little over 2 months old, he loves being handled and when I pet his back. Now, without further ado, here are a couple of my favorite pictures of the little guy!

He's adorable hey, how'd you know he was a boy? Mine are about 4 months and they still don't know if they're boys or girls yet.

I actually don't know, it's too hard to tell when beardies are younger. Just kind of a gut feeling I have haha

 

[Mummapinkham]

He is such a cutie!!

 

[Linkin821]

Darn I thought someone might of figured it out haha, cause mine are babies like that and I wanna know if they are male or female!

Here's an update with some new pics. Hercules is going through his first shed with me and has some pretty cool colors! It looks to me like he has a slight greenish hue to him, let me know what you guys think!

Pre-shed venting, I just thought it was cute

Starting to shed

He got most of it off, still waiting for his head to shed. Probably going to happen soon because he was doing some eye bulging today (very creepy, I'm glad I knew what it was before I saw it for the first time in person)

He's so cute! Tiny little Hercules! <3 Loving how his colors are coming out- sure they will only get brighter and prettier!

Can anyone tell me if he is any type of morph?

I'm pretty sure I just confirmed my gut feeling that Hercules is indeed a boy!
Once they are about 3 months/6 inches + you should be able to tell by looking at the presence or absence of hemipenal buldges right above his/her vent (on the tail side) 2 bulges on the eges causing a slight indent in the middle is male, and a single bulge in the middle is a female.
