SPA50 Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Hey guys I have just picked up 3 sweet big peps from the auctions, and I'm unsure of two. 1 is definitely a male. The other two are either female or non dominant males. Here is a pic of a questionable pep the other looks the same. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISSY Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Looks female for sure if it is a good size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPA50 Posted March 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Yeah decent size. And very "built" Cheers mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISSY Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 If they have bristles running up their nose and across their nose it's a male, if they have bristles running across the nose but nose going up the nose it's a female. Females also have a 'bony' nose, males have soft noses (just run your finer along it's nose before you put it in the tank if unsure.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPA50 Posted March 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 The two undecided ones have two on the nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HannibalsMum Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I found the best way to sex them is putting them on an ice cream lid next to each other. FEMA have wider bodies than the boys. So if you put you known male next to the other two you should see the difference. ( its how I sex even the common, they all seem to be the same. Girls have a wider body. ( that's if there are no bristles yet, it hasn't steered me wrong yet. Lol) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
