can you figure it out? gender

I tried to take some picture of my Leopard Geckos to sex them but they didn't want to cooperate and my camera sucks so this is what I got, can anyone make out what the genders are? By the way, they are both at 35 grams each.


Female?


Male?


I'll try and get some better pics of them tomorrow. They were way squirmy and getting angry with me. Sorry they're blurry! One of them has teeny tiny pores and the other one's pores are a bit bigger as you can see. If you can in fact see it.

I'm leaning to them both being male but still unsure about the top pic. It's a bit hard to tell.

They are now housed together, and getting along great. They even have the same favorite hide and that doesn't seem to bother them either.

Also, I read on one of the sites that they become sexually mature at 35 grams, which they are both at.

I would go more by age than I would weight, give them some time.

If you suspect that they are both males,,they need to be seperated...they may get along now, but I doubt it will last.

I think that they are both females at this point, but hoping for male and female.
