I've never heard of any way to tell the sex of butti's by physical characteristics. your best bet is to try venting it.

Iam also guessing female because it still has stripes at that large size and if it is a girl it will lay eggs sooner or later confirming that.

My guess is female also. males usually have less indentation around the vent area, as well as larger jaw structure.

Either way, your butti has a cool circle-pattern thing going instead of the usual parallel stripes.
