Giz really looks like a girl, no obv bald bits aroun the eyes nose like a girl etc, but today I tool giz out for a run and when I went back to HIM I was shocked!! PURE White eyes!! I thought something had happened lol, he looked like he was a zombie!! Creamed up like crazy, so tht confirms he is a male 100%? I her females do not do this but I'm still confused about tenrec sexing though iv been researching it for YONKS. Correct me if wrong please Smile

I thought the milky eye thing only occurred when there was a female present?

I thought that Em, but I read somewhere that they can go milky if ANY female is present with hormones, or whatever the hell it is we kick off... unsure

Pheromones? Hormones are internal things!

Oh fun so now my tenrec fancies me ! My day gets better and better :p unless we have a female tenrec hiding in our hall which would be a plus!! So milky eyes is def a strict male thing? Smile
