So I read in another thread today that someone's new sulcata hatching was likely a female because it has an extra scute (apparently, extra scutes happen when incubated at higher temperatures?). I'm wondering how accurate this is and if it applies to multiple species...and, conversely, does a missing scute indicate male?
My Hermanns, Littlefoot, is missing his fourth vertebral scute, it would be interesting to know if he's likely male.
