Hi,

I'm fostering 4 babies from a feeder breeder rescue and I need to be sure they're all girls. The other fosters and I split up the babies and had to sex them on scene but as can happen, no testicles were visible so there were a few questionable ones lol and I'm having a hard time seeing nipples on all of them.
These are the best pics I could get, do they look like all girls? I need to know for sure asap so we can move them around if needed. Thanks!

Well the're from two litters, according to the "owner" who surrendered them, they are about 4 weeks, but some do look to be about 3 weeks, we're not sure if they are that young or just look it because of the malnutrition? They're mom was fed only cheerios while pregnant and nursing. :emb: Ironically, Daisy is the only one I was able to clearly see nipples on??? lol
 
OK I'll put up sexing pics and see if that helps you determine in RL

Ok I checked them again, and Daisy definitely has nipples, so she has to be a girl. Right? lol I think that's a bad angle on the picture because when I look at her in RL she looks more like the girl you posted.

4 girly girls then :thumbup:
 
Ok well, at closer inspection, I went back and compared everyone, I'm actually pretty sure Minne is a boy! It's hard to tell for sure though because he's the smallest and when I compare him to the girls closest to his size the gap looks almost the same. But I'm pretty sure he has no vagina lol and I lined up two pics to compare and I can see a slight difference in the urethra. But I'm hoping someone else can confirm this for me, he's sooo tiny and squirmy! I always thought sexing furred babies would be a cinch but now that I'm actually faced with it, it's not so simple! :cheeky:

Here's the two photos, Minnie on the left, Clarabelle on the right.

Thanks! I was able to get a better look today with my husbands help and I'm positive now that she's a girl. Thank you for the help!
