Vent pics--

Here are a couple of pics of Mordecai's vent area-- I understand if he (or she) is too young to sex-- just wondering if you can tell? Or are these pics not right to be able to see whatever you need to see??

I can't be sure from those pics, Lori. Sometimes pictures of the same area from above or from the side can be a little more revealing. Maybe he/she is still too young to visually sex.

I agree with James again, Lori. Add a photo showing a side view. You can more often see the taper difference that way.

Re: Vent pics--

Thanks James. He might be too young indeed. For future reference, are there some examples somewhere of the correct kind of pic to send?

So everyone, please don't tell Mordecai I posted these pics on the internet. He'll be SO embarrassed. lol :-)
