[mattluck3]

Hello everyone, My son has been doing a lot of research and he us almost positive it is a male. If i were to post some pics i was wondering if I could get all of your expert opinions. Also exactly what do you need pictures of the tail end and the belly? thanks

A good clear tail pic should do it. Maybe a few from different angles just to be sure.
