Hello there! It's been a long time since anyone posted here so Im hoping I'm not out of place...I'm into this awesome hobby, I have currently a 5-6 month old panther. The thing is we got it not really knowing the gender, as we don't really care since they are such beautiful things. I just need you guys expertise on the matter, my wife and I are kinda certain it's a female, but idk some times I feel I see a bulge but I could be just my inexperience. So I appreciate the help.

Definitely a female, do you have a laybin for her?
Yes, I actually saw her going all around her cage last two days, then I got to researching. I did the laying bin yesterday, I'm about to cover her cage so she feels a more privacy and hopefully she will get to it. 15919803363117935964217377870062.jpg
 
The topic comes up all the time so I figured it was about time to have a thread that can be linked to. Panthers can be easily sexed fresh out of the egg based on the taper of the tail base. Trying to guess sex based on color can work but is not as reliable. In my experience, some females' tails will become thicker around 2 to maybe 4 months old and this method becomes a little less easy to compare but when they're small it is very accurate.

Baby males are not sexually mature and thus do not have a hemipenal bulge. They do, however, have a space for the hemipenes to develop into. When viewed from the side, with the tail held straight back, the profile from the tail across the vent to the belly is almost a straight line in males. Here are pics of two males:

The tail base of females has the same shape in babies as adults. It is more thin which makes the profile seem like there's an indention just before the vent.

Can anyone tell me what they think mine is? Supposed to be a male

I was wondering if my new baby veld chameleon is a boy or girl

I am thinking girl? Was hoping a boy lol
If you can go here and post a thread just for your baby it would be helpful. This one is a really old thread for Panther chameleons. We will need better pics and some of the back of the back feet from the side view to see if there is a tarsal spur. Also I recommend your own thread because babies colors are really brown which can indicate a husbandry issue that we can help you with.
