I'm starting to see a bump on the stomach.. It's eating as much 5/8 inch crickets as I give everyday.. but I try not to feed him/her too much. Can anyone tell if its a male or female?

A male will have a pronounced bulge at the base of his tail. You will know it when you see it it isn't difficult to see. I don't see that here and would have to say it is either a female or too young to have a bulge. The bulge didn't become really distinct on mine until he was about 9 months old.

Maybe someone with more experience can weigh in if I'm missing something.

Edit: As I look again I realize I just can't tell at that angle. There might be a bulge, or there might be a trick of the light not really sure. Can you get a more direct shot of the tail base?
 
heres more pics~ I see him/her went down to the bottom and poo this morning.. Don't know if he/she is ready to lay eggs? But he/she is still eating as much as he/she can~
