Looks like my one chin is a boy!!!!!

Well after posting the other day about introducing an older and younger chin (2 females) Ive just let them have a little run around together and they seemed to get on really well, so well infact Im pretty sure my youngest girl(5 months old) looks llike shes a HE!!! She/he tried to mount the other one (8 years old) and I cant be certain but Im pretty sure I saw "boys" bits sticking out!!! She/he is hard to hold so I cant have a proper look, well I could but he struggles like a loon... another reason I homed the other...to build his confidence!!
So what to do??? How safe is it to neuter such a small animal? I would love to house them together, I certainly dont want to rehome,infact,thats not even an option!!!!
Any ideas?

Neutering is a very simple procedure with minimal risks
All my boys are done, you will need to keep him seperate for 6 weeks after the op to allow sperm to die

Did you check your girl after to see if she was in heat and if i he is caught her?
