Sorry for the late replies. I was out of the area for quite a bit and with limited internet access.
As Trace beat me to it, there are no obvious size differences. The colours (even from a few days old) until now are a dead giveaway, but you can confirm sex by checking out the tails. Thankfully, these things are not that hard to sex. *knock on wood*
The 11th hatched 4 or 5 days after the others. Here's a picture:
It still had a significant yolk sac, which disappeared about 24 hours after hatching. I had some high hopes, as he moved around a bit his first couple of days, but he did not last much longer than that.
At about 2 weeks, I lost one (a runt), and another [runt] at about 1 month. The rest (8) are fat, happy and healthy. Trace has 1.1 of them. I think at hatching, we were 50/50 male:female, but I did not bother to note the sex of the two who died.
Mine are not nearly as feisty, as compared to when they first hatched out. Trace's girl is a feisty little thing, but mine for the most part are not. The babies that I have left are still co-habitating, and even though they tend to hang out in separate areas, I have not yet seen any fighting, and the bulk of them go to sleep on the same branch at night.
Mrs G is teaching them how to be ungrateful towards Trace.
