What a cute little face.
Yep....complete with biting...I wear a glove when her/his environment. I think its a him. He brs loud too. First time I heard it I dropped the water. He didnt try to bite me when I moved him into a larger taller enclosure. However, Mike changed the substrate and moved him, and he did get bit. GLOVES! He is just terrotorial. I handle him often with the gloves.

Hi, I know this is an old post but id like to offer what I know.
I own 4 Tokays, 3 females and a male.
The visual ways of telling the difference are by either:
A) taking a look at the femoral pores which are located in a V formation on the lower belly barely and inch from where the tail starts.
Females will be barely noticeable dot in the middle of each "scale"
Males the 'scale' will stick out more and the dot will look like a little hole (its easier when you have one of each so you have something to compare to)
B) Males heads are wider than females, and females have the pointier faces since they aren't as wide but this isnt a 'for sure' thing since tokays of different ages will be more or less developed (Tokays tend to get 'chunky' looking as they get older;mine started after 3-4 years)
there are a few other physical characteristics but again you cant rely on them, the best bet is 'A)' if you can get a hold of em lol
Hope this helped
