Default Re: Ronnie and his/gender issues :S

RH - I really don't mind either way! he/she will be loved what ever gender they turn out to be . They were the only one in the shop so I didn't have a choice, I was told it was a boy and figured it should be obvious to tell so left it at that. Typical P@H!

I was going to change the name since it reminded me of a girl I used to go to school with and she was a big meany haha but I'll think I'll wait till I'm 100% on gender
When I think he/she's a male, I think of Ronnie O'Sullivan the snooker player so that was fine.

Souffle - In that case I'll give it some time before giving the little sweetie a gender. I'll have an investigate when they wake and try to take a picture. Thank you, I think he/she's stunning

That looks female from above, but as Souff mentioned, have a look at the vents. I had a male with undescended testicles who looked female from above but definitely male from underneath until about 7 months old. There are pics of him on my website in the how to sex Chinese hamsters section Look for if there is fur between the vents - I've found that girls' can look far apart when they're small (not as far as they boys are, but that's tricky if you don't have a boy right there to compare!) , but there's no fur between them.
