At what size or age is it possible to sex fire salamanders?

Thanks,

Depends on the subspecies. For Salamandra s. terrestris, in my experience it can be done reliably about 12 cm. Mainly by build - females are more robust/chunkier.
 
The ones to which I am refering are the nominate form-Salamandra salamandra salamandra. Is it the same method as terrestris?

Thanks,
~Aaron
