Female or male?

[Molly]

I don’t know if my Tegu is old enough to tell but can anyone tell me if it’s male or female yet? Thank you lol I would like to name my baby without probing lol I know I’ll probably have to wait!

I think it's a male.

 

[Molly]

May I ask why you think that?

Sure. If you look at the lower left corner just below the vent, you will see a cluster of enlarged scales. Even at birth, males have these assosiated with musculature that controls movement of the hemipenes.
