Marmoratus ''crested'' female

[Pedro Oliveira]

Hi peoples!!!!

I have this doubt from the day I bought them.
I read that sometimes the females may also grow a small crest, especially in the absence of male ...
This girl has always made me doubt about being male or female ... They came to me as a couple, but over time I realized I had two females ... The other was perfectly normal, well-marked orange line and very chubby !!
But this always had this micro crest, with black spots, just like a terrestrial males!!

One time I offer my female to a friend who had a male alone, with plans to eventually get a male, but misfortune of life, she has been '' alone '' about 3 years, so never more worry much about their sex.

What is certain is that its crest never grown more than that and the cloaca never swelled ... So I'm pretty sure she's a beautiful female, but I'd like to hear your opinions and if you had something like that !!

Here are some pictures of her.

Here from the day they arive


the others are todays pics




All the best !!!!

I would say that it is a female. I have one that has a small crest and a darker line across the back..she is much darker all over.

Looks like a female to me. All my female marmoratus have short dorsal crests.

Good morning mates,
otolith and bellabelloo, thank you for your answers!
Now I'm pretty sure she's a girl, I'm seeing if I can get a male and he may make her fall in love
Need to take a new camera too, that 5MP photos look awesome on my mobile, when I pass to the pc I just wanna turn off the fullscreen :nono:

Ps. Bella, nice too see you still here!
