I was given an umbee approx a year ago from a local breeder... I was told it's a female ( 5-6" at that time)..
However as its starting to approach the 10 "-12" mark, I'm starting to second guess the seller's opinion.:popcorn:

Is there a way to tell ...? I'll post a pic of her(?) later as she is coloring up nicely and seems to be getting a reddish hue around the nuchal hump area..
