You are right in a way because most animals can be sexed once they are no longer babies

Same age as mine, she was born end of August

Did the breeder tell you whether they'd been incubated for male or female or a mix?

sadly not,at the time of buying them, I didnt know about this forum, so I have had to learn a lot in a short time.

I bought them from a pet shop and was sold a viv with them, and told to feed them romaine lettuce.

I know one is CB uk the other (apparently) is CB in Germany. At least thats what their papers say.

Im not really fussed about their sex, it would just be nice to know.

In response to the question about their size, they are still small, probably no more than 4 or 5 cm in length.

I'm quite lucky because I know mine was incubated for female... not that there's any guarantees but hopefully she will be as she's called Sapphire!

I shouldn't worry about what sex they are at the moment. You certainly won't be having any problems for a few years even if they are male and female

It would be nice if they were one of each as they are not related, but tbh im happy either way.
