thanks for that. the pics are a bit too small and i have crappy vision. do you think you could re-post them a bit bigger? if you cant re-size them, can you point out the differences between the 2 pics?
thanks.

male aparently have huge head and thicker tail bases whereas females have thiner tail bases. i can only really tell the diff once i saw two rea ones side by side. either way if you post a pic of yours you'll get an answer once people can see what your talking about

Male Dragons also have a small hemipenal rise at the base of the tail. I dont know whether this is a sexing factor in C.nuchalis but I have kept another Ctenophorus (C.decresii) and this was also apparent in them.
