Thoughts?

What do you guys think? Male, female maybe both? :lol: my novice opinion is male, but haven't seen any blatant indications as of yet. Sorry for the crap phone photo too.

I'm afraid I'm horrible at sexing Northerns; hopefully someone experienced will give you some good ideas...

Looks femalish to me . But I don't know about this skink, the tail base looks wider on top than underneath.
