So, today I noticed that one of my girls has a tail that is quite a bit longer than my other girl, though a bit shorter than my male. She was the smallest one, but recently started getting growth lines and is now bigger than my male. Can anyone tell me if I have a girl or a boy on my hands?

its hard to tell from that one picture. Can you provide a few other angles?

I tried to get her (him?) to come out a little bit, but today was bath day and everyone hates bath day. So, these have a little better lighting. I'll try for a better one tomorrow at breakfast.

Might still be early to say for sure. But I would lean to male based on what I can see of the tail.

We need a clear pic of the underside of the tail showing the cloacal opening. It would help if it were cleaned up a little with a Qtip of soft toothbrush after or during a soak.
