How old does a beardie have to be before I can tell if it's a boy or girl? The lady at the pet store said I have a boy, but it's looking more and more like a girl everyday. It's only about a month old. =3

  1. lift the tail up there will be a one solid bump above the butt if it is a girl and two bumps next to each other if it is a boy.. i am guessing it is too young to tell you usually tell around 7 months or so and a boy will get a black beard


  2. Another thing to look for are femoral pores/plugs.  If you look along the upper legs on the underside, if you see large "holes" or what look like waxy plugs then you have a boy, the plugs are usually seen during breeding season.  However it might be too young to tell yet.

  3. i can tell if i get a look at the base of the tail. right where its tail starts, if you see two long parallel lumps, its a boy. if you see one lump going right to left, its a girl.

    heres what i mean...
