Re: Update on Cass. Male of female aswell
Yah! I'm not breeding untill I do 4-5 years research! She may not be my son anymore but she's my daughter now, and I'm really protective and want her mate to be suitable! Haha, anyone got something I can read about females?

I have absolutely no personal experience so just going by what I read here, but apparently their growth rate isnt the sexual determiner, but rather the length of time they grow for. Supposedly, they grow at about the same rate, but males continue growing long after the females have slowed down already. Ive asked for the full article, but here is the abstract for something along those lines.
Ontogeny of sexual size dimorphism in monitor liz... [Zoolog Sci. 2010] - PubMed - NCBI

Re: Update on Cass. Male of female aswell
And take in the fact that Brady said the pet store wasn't feeding Castiel adequately.
So s/he could be a stunted male in theory.

Apparently he's on herpcenter. He uses another name, ask Wayne!

Re: Update on Cass. Male of female aswell
Way I found out Jojo was a male is when he pooped in the water and it all came out.
Your looks like a female because of the size but if she was underfed i don't know.

Re: Update on Cass. Male of female aswell
Even "popping" can be deceiving. Most people don't know the difference between hemipenes and hemiclitoris.

He's on HC as "Bodiddlyitis" and he's on Kingsnake as "Mampam"
