O.K. I’m new to the group. I’m going to start small and work from there. First, I’m trying to identify the gender of Our Baby. The local pet store (with a questionable reputation) gave me tips on identifying the sex. She informed me that if the ‘bottom plate’ (forgive me, I don’t speak fluent DBT yet)is concave, it’s a male; if it’s flat, it’s a female. After looking at the neoterrapin.com site, it says a key identifier is tha shape of the tail. I’m leaning towards male, but I would like to be sure. Can someone please tell me where I can submit a picture, and more accurately what photographic evidence I should provide, to solve this quandry? Thanks in advance, John

John PlackMarch 21, 2011 at 7:50 pm #22961I believe I have my answer. I just posted a new pic entitled “Is this a boy tail” in my “Knucklehead” album. It seems everything is pointing to Our Baby being a boy. I always thought of him being more along the lines of “handsome” anyway. Can I get a concurrence? Thanks to those that responded. Cheers, ~John
