Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has ever been able to correctly sex there fire sals when they are still young. I know that the normal age is roughly 3 to 4 but I have two little ones (s.s. Salamandra) that were born the end of May 2012 and I am pretty sure one is showing a definite cloacal bulge and the other is not. I am not exactly sure on their length, I'm guessing 13 cm plus (nose to tail).
I am just curious to see if anyone else has seen early signs or if my ones cannot actually be sexed at this age.
P.S. They are both suspected siblings from a huge litter, so should I stop any breeding that may go on in the future or is it ok for them to inbreed? I must say I don't like the thought of them inbreeding but my tropical fish do it all the time haha
Thanks in advance
