What gender is my chinchilla?

[purikura]

Hello everyone. So I just got my chin last Tuesday but can't seem to determine the gender. I was at first told it was a male and then a female! I have tried to look myself with little to no luck. There is a small pink protrusion pointing towards the chins head which leads me to think it may be male?
I do have a picture but the quality is not great.
Please help and thank you !

Is there any way you can get a clearer pic in better lighting? Too hard to tell from that picture.

Need a much better picture to tell for sure but my guess is female from what I can see.

I'll try to get another picture when it's light again tomorrow

Finally for a picture! Is this better?

Is this any better?

I think you have a little girl. I may be wrong though.

Looks female to me.

I am less sure now than what I was before. Try to take a pic by holding from tail with animal hanging head down in your one hand while you snap a close up pick with the other hand.

I agree with Jags the cage is not helping and the photo is unclear.

This may help. With a better picture we can also help you determine for sure.

If you can't hold the chin as Jags suggested maybe get someone to help you take the picture.
