I always err on the side of caution when I sex the babies. There often are babies that look sexually ambiguous. I hold on to these, and ones that I feel certain are female, longer. I often buy breeder males and keep breeder females from what I bread. I do this because all females look very similar! During importing wild caughts I do not want to leave it up to chanse and receive a Ambilobe that was labeled wrong as a Ambanja. So in short I buy wild caught males. Because I do not want to sell a "male" that turns our to be a female I sometimes end up with boys that are late bloomers becoming available to purchase. The other interesting bit of information is that not all the babies from the same clutch hatch at the same time! It can take a month or more for all the babies to hatch.
