    Sumatra sexing?

    Anyone have any guesses about the sex of these 2 sumatras? They are almost 4 weeks old, so I know it is still early. One is much larger than the other and both are really quiet and timid. I am really excited to see how the turn out!

    red/purple foot sores and elongated scales from pacing/wet feet *PICS*

They (two naughty males) used to be housed with the chickens, but they started to chase them, so now they live in an adjacent pen....they did not like being separated, so they pace the fence alot and have created a very muddy "runway."...
