You may be surprised to learn that determining the sex of your bearded dragon isn’t as simple as looking for a bearded dragon penis or a vagina . Anatomically speaking, sexing mammals is just easier .
Don’t fret! There are reliable methods for determining your beardie’s gender. Once you know what you’re looking for, sexing a bearded dragon is a relatively straightforward process.
As a matter of fact, after reading this article, you’ll probably be thankful that you don’t have to see your bearded dragon’s hemipenis…
Warning: This article depicts graphic imagery of a cloacal prolapse (prolapsed hemipenes). Dried blood and internal tissues are present.
Male and female bearded dragons have physical and behavioral differences.
Both sexes make equally good pets. If you’re trying to decide, it comes down to personal preference.
If any of these traits are important to you, be sure to learn how to sex a bearded dragon before you bring one home!
A male reptile’s entire sexual organ is referred to as the hemipenes . Hemipenes is the plural word for a hemipenis .
A hemipenis is one of two tube-like structures that form a male reptile’s hemipenes .
It all comes down to embryonic development.
Mammalian embryos develop only one penis. Scientists believe this is because the penis begins to grow from the same general vicinity as the tailbone.
The structures in this area signal for cells to grow one structure. One tailbone? One penis.
Reptiles’ sexual organs develop closer to their rear leg buds. This area signals for cells to grow into two structures. Two rear legs? Two penises.
Scientists confirmed this theory by grafting chickens’ reproductive tissue next to their limb buds.
Chickens naturally have a single penis, but the chickens with grafted tissue grew secondary reproductive buds.
A lizard’s penises are inverted , meaning that it naturally sits inside of the body. It rests in the tail, behind the cloaca (sexual and anal opening).
Male beardies, and other lizards, typically have a wider tail base and longer tail to accommodate their pair of penises.
Fun Fact: Scientists have discovered that a lizard’s penis evolves six times faster than any other body part . Some species of lizard look so similar that scientists use the appearance of their hemipenes to identify them!
Thanks to their unique sexual organs, male beardies have some unique care requirements . It’s a package deal!
Believe it or not, caring for a male bearded dragon requires some extra steps. These issues often cause panic, or worse , for new bearded dragon owners and their pets.
Femoral pores are enlarged skin openings that secrete pheromones , chemicals that signal sexual status to other members of the same species.
You’ll find a single row of femoral pores on the underside of the animal’s thighs and anal region. They look like black circles or dots.
Both male and female bearded dragons have femoral pores. Male dragons’ femoral pores are much larger, secrete more substance, and are more likely to get clogged.
Fun Fact: Bearded dragons aren’t the only lizards with femoral pores. Iguanas, other agamas, girdled lizards, collared lizards, horned lizards, and many other lizard families have femoral pores. Monitor lizards and some female geckos don’t have them.
The first step to caring for your bearded dragon’s femoral pores is to check them every week. Early signs of femoral pore issues include:
Once you notice these signs, it’s time to take action!
Don’t try to squeeze the waxy discharge or plugs out. Doing so could result in permanent damage. If the plug is at all hardened or stuck in place, it needs veterinary treatment.
Clogged pores that aren’t cared for may become impacted, infected , or even result in an abscess . Impacted pores, or worse, always require veterinary treatment.
Watch for the following signs of an impacted pore:
Make an appointment with your reptile veterinarian if you notice any of these signs.
A prolapsed hemipenis is one of several types of cloacal prolapse in reptiles.
If you notice red flesh protruding from your bearded dragon’s cloaca, act fast.
The sensitive tissue on their reproductive organs is prone to drying out and dying off.
If the tissue becomes necrotic, a veterinarian will need to remove it surgically. Don’t forget the risk of systemic infection!
Mild prolapses may heal on their own. You can try soaking your bearded dragon’s cloaca in warm sugar water. Try to keep the lizard calm .
After soaking the lizard’s prolapse, apply gentle pressure with a moistened cotton swab . You can also apply sugar paste or honey .
Keep in mind that any delay in treatment increases the risk of serious complications.
Arrange a veterinary appointment while your bearded dragon is soaking, just in case its condition doesn’t improve.
A prolapsed hemipenis may occur due to calcium deficiency or a case of “mating gone wrong.” They may also occur spontaneously.
Seminal plugs are the least significant occurrence in our list, but they still may freak some owners out.
Many vigilant new owners mistake a seminal plug for a prolapsed hemipenis !
Fortunately, seminal plugs are a common and harmless occurrence . They’re essentially an encapsulated build-up of lizard sperm.
Once too much substance has built up, the lizard must get rid of it. Usually, it comes out when the beardie defecates, and the owner is none the wiser .
Other times, keepers may notice it is protruding from the lizard’s vent. Ah! A prolapse! Panic!
Hold on. Look closely. Prolapsed bits are usually red, fleshy, inflamed, or even bloody.
Seminal plugs, or sperm plugs, are white or clear. They may appear waxy or crusty, but never red or bloody.
If your bearded dragon seems to be having a hard time dislodging a stuck seminal plug, follow the same steps for clogged femoral pores: soak the area in warm water and rub gently with a soft-bristled toothbrush.
The seminal plug is more than an occasional annoyance. It serves an important purpose: reproduction.
Bearded dragon sex tends to be rather violent .
The male bearded dragon circles the female, inching closer with each pass.
He will darken his beard and bob his head.
The female may wave her arm or bob her head in return.
Once the male is close enough, he will latch onto her neck, back, or shoulders – with his teeth! He positions his pelvis underneath hers and everts his hemipenes.
Thankfully, this is the only time you should ever see them!
The male may insert one hemipenis, or both hemipenes, into the female’s cloaca. He then deposits his seminal plug .
The entire ordeal ends as quickly as it started.
Be sure to read up on bearded dragon breeding basics , egg incubation, and hatchling care before you begin with this endeavor!

Dragons is a FANDOM Games Community.
The reproduction of dragons is a topic with very poor research, as it is rarely mentioned in mythology. Works of fantasy often have their own interpretations, which share a few common traits.
As dragons appear to be related to dinosaurian or reptilian animals, ergo to sauropsids, it is believed that they lay eggs. Most times the eggs require a long incubation period in which they are incubated and protected by their mother as is the case with many archosaurs. Due to their elemental affinity to fire, the eggs are also depicted to require high temperatures which are maintained by the mother dragon's fire.
There are however stories that refute this theory, in which young dragons mature in water, as do the larvae of amphibians. Such myths are commonly associated with wyverns . Some sources also state that the Long dragons of Asian origin lay their eggs in bodies of water.
Dragons are often said to mature very slowly, which match their presumably long lifespans. Yet there are also stories of dragons which grow to a significantly large size in short time. Most of these cases pertain more often to Asian mythology as opposed to its Western counterparts.
There are few resources on the topic of dragon reproduction, because dragons are often depicted in Western myths as monsters sent by the gods or the devil. Some exceptions to this rule are listed below.
Medieval bestiaries state that only male Indian mountain dragons have a crest on their heads. As noted by Peter J. Hogarth, this sexual dimorphism suggests that the crest is used in mating rituals. [1]
Based on sources from the 17th and 18th centuries, Hogarth also states that male dragons released their sperm into fountains and bodies of water during the mating season. Robert May believed that the overpopulation of these large predators was avoided with such wasteful behavior. These acts however were counterproductive to them as humans hunted them with increasing frequency. [2]
Scientists held a rather interesting view on this topic, in which dragons emerge from the corpses of slain people on the battlefield, much like maggots from cadavers. Knowing that maggots hatch from eggs that are laid in cadavers, this could be evidence for similar reproductive behavior of certain types of dragons. Hogarth states that maggots from the carcasses evolve into flies, which later develop into dragons. [1]
The baby Lambton Worm probably resembled the olm, Proteus anguinus
Some English legends tell of young dragons that were found by humans. One of these is the legend of the Lambton Worm , in which the protagonist caught an animal similar to a lamprey or olm. He threw it in a well, where it grew over the years into a giant worm which terrorised the townsfolk. [3]
The dragon which was killed by Ragnar loðbrók also begins its life in a very similar way. It was cared for by a girl in a gold casket, where it grew in the presence of gold with substantial speed. [4]
Young vipers eat their way out of the womb.
An interesting case is the medieval description of the Guivre (Viper), in which not only do the females bite of the head of the males during courtship, but the young eat their way out of the womb of their mother, thus killing her. It follows that these young dragons are left to fend for themselves thereafter. It is not known if the Guivre are viviparous or ovoviviparous. [5]
The wyvern is described differently in the story of the dragon of Mordiford. Here it is described as a charming creature with wings, playful in nature and regarded by the male protagonist Maud as his pet. This points to the wyvern being an intelligent creature that should spend its time with its parents by nature, and that this particular wyvern was orphaned due to unforseen circumstances. This dragon reached adulthood in the time span of one month, and though he brings no harm to Maud, scares others into believing he will attack them in spite of his upbringing. As with many English myths, he loves cow's milk, on which he was mainly fed as a young dragon. [6]
Sviatoslav Logonov believed that Slavic dragons carry their young on their backs. The heads of the young acted as additional heads for the mother dragon, which might have been the basis for the many-headed dragon . [7]
Hogarth describes the young of some species of dragon to suckle milk, like mammals. [1]
A very detailed desciption of the growth of young dragons is found in Chinese mythology . Here the growth of a dragon takes an unrealistically long time as opposed to British myths, which is related to the divinity of the dragon.
Life cycle of a Chinese Long: Egg (1), water snake (2), Kiao (3), Long (4), Kioh-Lung (5), Ying-Lung (6)
The eggs are similar to pebbles on a riverbed, but sometimes the 'egg' also refers to the pearl of the dragon. After 1,000 years the eggs hatch into young animals similar to serpents . 500 years later, its head resembles that of a carp, at which point it is called Kiao . After another 1,000 years, the dragon grows limbs, scales and a beard, and another 500 years after that it grows horns which allow it to hear. Only after 1000 years from this point, the animal is an adult Ying Lung , which according to some sources also has wings. [8]
It should also be noted that in medieval and early modern works, the depiction of very small dragons do not necessarily indicate that it is a juvenile; in that time it can be presumed that dragons were much smaller compared to the giant creatures of the fantasies of modern day. A small dragon is called a dragonette .
