hi to sex them hold them flat on your hand with the tail towards you and carefully lift the tail be careful not to damage, on the tail just behind the split there will either be 1, 2 or no bumps 2 for male also on the back legs there are pores males usually have bigger ones dont look at the pores and hope its deffo right as is not a proven way to sex them hope this helps

Not jealous, territorial. as another poster has said hold the beardie in your palm facing away from you gently lift the tail, your looking just behind the flap at the base of the tail if its a male there should be to bumps and all along the underside of the back legs there will be the pores. also males heads are usually broader.

We have a good care sheet on our website.. Also as said beardies are more territorial than jealous.. They can also get territorial over silly things like food bowls and hides which is why I dont have hides in my vivs especially the ones where my females are housed, they have lots of hiding places but no hides.

Any advise you need please dont be worried about asking. pm me or send an email.

Liz
