Question Axolotl female or immature male??
Hey i'm new to this site so please bare with me. Lately i've got a baby Leucistic axolotl that's about 3 inches. But then i decided to breed them so i got another Golden Albino "female" from the shop. The shop isn't very decent sadly so they assumed she was a female, she's 6 inches with grayish toes (sexually mature). I'm guessing she's already an adult but a small one, judging by her looks other than her size her colours are pretty solid to be an adult. Here's a picture of her and her cloaca, i'm hoping to know her true sex before purchasing for sure another male or female.
Seems to me she looks like a female or an immature male. So please leave me a comment and see if you think it's a male or female!!! Thank you!
P.s. She's in a temporary tank in these pictures!

Dark toe tips (mature)?

Ditto on that, looks like Nancy's. Males get *cough* noticeable bulges, like this:
