Would anybody be able to possibly explain how to sex Blue Beauty Anoles (Anolis equestris potior)?
After looking online, a few videos have explained that females are stripy or barred, males being spotty.
I purchased one a few weeks ago as a male but I’m now convinced based on the above that it could actually be female. Looking to grow my collection but unsure how to proceed without knowing the current sex of mine.
Many thanks!
I’m not expert but we might be able to help if you get a ventral view photo of the Anole

I just ordered one of these for my baby chameleon geckos…..

Uploaded images. Didn’t initially as most of the videos never mentioned vent for some reason.
This looks like a female to me….
Looking at the photos what makes you think female? Trying o broaden my knowledge on sexing so your help is very much appreciated.
Ok so I may be speaking out of turn here and not comparing “apples to apples”. I should have asked first how old this cute little critter is before giving my somewhat educated guess.
I do not have experience with these particular anoles but I did have the coolest male false chameleon anole with prominent bulging underside the vent. My male chameleon gecko has this bulging as does my male leopard gecko. However all are adults.
If this anole is an adult then I would bet money it is a female. My CG babies are only a few months old so this is why I ordered the Pangea sexing tool. These babies are so tiny there is no way I could discern male or female. I might not even be able to do it with this little gadget. (Thanks @ghsaltie 
)
With leopard geckos the pores that identify the male sex are fairly easy to see before the bulges appear. But this little anole is quite a bit different so I might be barking up the wrong tree and giving you a very lame opinion…….
He/She should be adult, they’re quite a decent size. None of the ones I’ve seen have any differences near the vent, so they’re either all females, or the vent thing doesn’t apply to them. It’s really interesting and very frustrating!
Let me see what I can find out by watching/researching a few videos. Also I misspoke. I had a false CUBAN anole. Not a chameleon anole…..
@harlezard Yep that’s a female all right. Does she display her dewlap at all? She should have a small one when displayed and lighter in color than a male…..
