maybe I should take a pic? He is very colorful and very aggressive, by all right he should be a he. maybe these are not the actual sac that are traditionaly on females.

here is a pic of him, you can faintly see the sacs, sry but thats the best pic I could take, my camera batteries had only enough juice for one shot.....

but what sex does the one in that picture look like to you?
i plan on keeping him/her/it. it's already in a seperate tank in my room with me. I have no problem with that, the only problem I have is determining the sex of it. I know for sure that I have a breeding pair in the other tank. The male is very colorful and has no sacs, unlike the female which is considerably duller in appearence and has calcium sacs.

ya know, now that I think about it, i have noticed that this gecko is not as colorful as the one I know is a male. it really doesnt matter THAT much what sex it is. I can't use her for breeding either way. I am glad with the pair I have and that will be fine for breeding. She will just have to be my little buddy

ok, now after switching tops on the "breeding pair's" cage, i saw sacs on the "male" as well. Much smaller and you can only notice them when he moves a certain wat. but are they calcium sacs? or just like...fatty deposites? they are not nearly as noticable as the ones I am sure are female. When he's just sitting there layed out flat they are invisible. only when he moves his neck a certain way do you see them. Now have I been hoplessly stuck with 3 females...again????? OYE.....This is just NOT my day.
