Could you get a better picture? Its difficult to tell when its stressed and has washed out colors.
 
No way. Needs to put on some size, and become more comfortable with you shoving a camera in its face. :)
 
how big is it? does it have spangling on its sides or black in its dorsal? from pic looks like he doesnt have any spangling so i would say female but its hard to tell when its not showing its normal colors (try to get a pic right after you put food in)

I'd say about 3" ill try grab some more pics are feeding time hopefully its too distracted to see the camera.

I'd give it some time and let it grow a few inches.
 
yeah +1 post another pic when it reaches about 5in and we will be able to say with more certainty, though i think your chances of it being female are good, they are such cross dressers at that size its better to wait a bit longer
