Still a bit young to tell 100% , you can use the transillumination teqnique on baby's though , the guy at the shop should know that you should not pop monitors , as they mature male's usually have a more pronounced curvature to the lower jaw and usually a higher tail crest and broader skull , good luck with them it would be nice to get a compatibale pair raised together
