 Sexing

In my personal opinion, as long as the Uro is healthy and has the right, lighting, heating, diet, environment and care, it shouldn’t matter what sex it is.

But if you must know, I "believe" most males of the species are darker in color and have more vibrant colors when they start to come out, but there are some females that "mimic" males. From what I understand, and I might be wrong, but it can be really hard to tell male from female until they are almost adults. Whatever you do, don’t let a Vet PROBE your Uro to find out the sex.
