When can I start seeing the gender of my axolotl?

I have a leucistic axolotl. Its plump like a female and doesnt seem to have swollen cloaca like a male would, but I was told to give it time since my axolotl is only almost 9 months.
 
I've just had a 'female' decide she's a boy at 13 months. I almost sold it as a one of a breeding pair last month!
 
Last night I had a pair breed. Out of the 3 in the tank only one looks like it had matured as I was fairly certain that it was male (wild type), the 2 leucistics didn't look as if they had even matured. Guess I was wrong.
No eggs yet, but the male had certainly done his part last night.
Today has been quite chaotic with preparing 2 extra tanks to split all 3 of them until I know what's happening.
:dizzy:
