Sex this mango pls

Post by mcaquatic »

I came across this 8-9 inch mango. Really healthy and really broad. I think it is a female, but not positive. I have two females and really need a male. Please let me know what you think. If its male I will try to go back for it. thanks

I had an amazing male and sadly lost him in my last move. His pectorals where much more impressive compared to this one.

My initial guess would be female, due to the "lack" of length in the cheek odontodes.

Always a challange the bigger Barrys.
