I was wondering if anyone could sex/ID my FBN, as I am unaware of the technique for determining sex or species.

Also curious as to whether she looks healthy, or should gain more weight.

Thank you

You are unlikely to be able to sex it until it is in better shape. The secondary sexual characteristics can disappear if the animal is stressed or ill or simply terrestrial, which by the looks of the skin of your animal, might be the case.
If you offer optimal conditions and you are lucky, it will eventually re-develop those characteristics and sexing it will be very easy.
As for the species it´s an Hypselotriton orientalis.

It´s slightly underweight and looks to be stressed and undergoing a terrestrial phase. Its best chance is for you to offer the best conditions right away. I highly recommend you read the caresheet and the many articles that you can find in my signature.
