ALL 3 are females .. yes your Vet was totally wrong .. the first is Northern and the 2nd and 3rd are Brazilians - means different regions / sub-species.

Don't expect any fertility obviously with no male present.. so all the other information [ although correct ] is not needed...

So, Terry, the first, that they thought was a YF, is really a RF? (Just want to be sure we're talking about the same pictures)

Are you sure could be a joung male?

It's possible .. they usually hold to side - regardless .. young males are seldom 'fertile'.

I had 10" males and 12" females that laid virtually all infertile eggs [ maybe 10% were fertile - I did open them up ]

Let us see the nose of what you think is the yellowfoot .. if possible.. it will look similar to this.. nose 'scales' reach end of nose.

i ve no photos of the nose but the first one have a yellow head

Colors mean nothing .. only the nose - look at all these different colors - these are my hatchlings over 10-12 years -

they are very beautiful, very different colour, but they belong to the same locality?

this photo is 3 year old , i know it not enough clear but it s a bit more than the other photos.

 

[tarta4ever]

ok found, sorry but in the back up there are a lot of photos

That's a redfoot most likely from Colombia.. very yellow is common - North of Brazil.. not typical Amazon-basin Yellowfoot...

This one is a boy and he is a little pervy-flashing his thing! The others look like girls to me.

I'm looking at it again Allegra .. where is the tip of his tail? It's so difficult to tell from the pic.. maybe it's not visible / behind 'his thing' ?

You've had this egg (S) for some time now. It's important to not move it about much. Place a dot on top of the egg to show what the "TOP" is and then do not rotate it.

 

[tarta4ever]

yes i have two eggs but they are very similar so i send only one picture, the dark spot is chalked outside so i use it as a mark.
