blurry pic, can you get a clear shot of the vent on the cloaca?

Ok, I resized it to get clearer, while it is a small tail it looks like a small male to me. Don't tell him i called him small, wouldn't want him to develop a complex. :)

Yeah, the tail isn't very big, however the cloaca is away from the body, so he looks male to me too.

He looks like a little boy! :D
His tail is still a wee short, but his cloaca also looks more vent shaped.
