It is usually pretty hard to tell gender from pictures, and your picture is not the best angle to guess. If you could post a picture of the skinks bodies in a straight line, we MIGHT be able to give an opinion. Very nice looking IJ's though!

Pictures are never a sure fire way of sexing. I recently discovered that my charecteristic female eastern is a male ad my known male is still a male. I wouldn't have a clue on visually sexing your two.

Those pictures are better, but still not really good enough to make a good guess. They need to be STRAIGHT down from above, with the skink as straight as you can possibly get it.

Visual sexing is not a sure fire way to sex a skink.

My initial feeling (a guess) is that both are female. But, Irian Jaya A could go either way. B seems pretty fat, and that makes me think female.

Again, total guess, just my gut feeling.
