    Lol!!! Cranwelli is female. Joaz is male, ornate is male, aurita is unsexed.

    If it turns out to be a female, I'm 75% right.
    I have to admit, I had my doubts about the ornate, and I'm not just saying that. I can see what you mean though. I will think even though this method only has a 50% chance of being right, I'l be using it in the future, because if you have to gamble, it's better to have a system, even just as a tie breaker.

    Well, the snout theory makes me believe female, so I'l go with male, just because I'm on to you.

    Male is the correct answer. see his snout is exactly the same as the female cranwelli at the top of my signature.

    Well, the theory is officially debunked lol. Now I'm wondering about the skull sexing though, would there happen to be a tutorial on that? I'm only intrested in finding out the sex of my little green one, I can't help but hope it turns out to be female, I'm just inlove with the colours, eventhough I know they are quite common.

    The skull shape theory is difficult to actually teach. After seeing so many babies you begin to notice features that stand out between those who have become male and those who become female. After you raise so many from babies you cN see it. Many breeders can do this.
