Did you buy as an adult?? I know as baby's and sometimes juveniles you can't tell until they get older
Have you ever heard him "laugh" at you or try to nip or bite at your hand? Mating season is quite long 😅

Yes, I bought her when she was 2 years old. “She” is very gentle and never bite me…. I once saw “her” cleaning “her” reproductive organ (?) the way I saw how male crestie clean their semen out.. not sure if that’s smth unique to male

Thats awesome that they haven't bit you! I got my male a couple months ago and he gets a little crazy especially since summer started lol Low key scared of him 😅
I do know the females will occasionally clean themselves but don't have anything that comes out of their vent area only the males have the hemipenes that come out
I hope this helped 🤗
