Default Re: Is Alex a male or female?

sorry but pets at home don't know what they're on about. Robos can live in mixed sex groups for months before actually mating. I bought a colony of robos and they had pups the spring AFTER i bought them. Apparently this is common for robos.

I don't know where you can take her to be sexed. I took robo pups to the vet and it was a nightmare. they had no clue. It's possible to sex them yourself, but the first time it is hard. If you can get a good, clear photo on here, we can have a look for you. The main thing to look at is the distance of the holes. A female will have hardly any distance between holes. You won't see nipples unless they are pregnant... and about half way through the pregnancy at that.
