Re: Is she a he?

I've wanted to say something to you about it but I just kept my mouth shut. Judging by that long tail, I think she is a he as well. Do you know anyone down there that can probe snakes?

Re: Is she a he?

Seems lately, it's been a trend. I'd love to know how many people out there are mistaken about their snake's sex. It could be a majority. Chance is a girl again, isn't she?

Re: Is she a he?

He OR she, either way, gorgeous. That IS a pretty long tail, but I have girls with super long tails, boys with short little stubby tails, and everything in between. We have a ball python that was given to us as a girl, but seemed awfully small. She had HUGE spurs, and was 8 years old and barely 1100 grams. We had her probed, she probed male, we thought that was that. Until a few months later when "he" dropped a clutch of eggs!

Re: Is she a he?

Could you flip it over and perhaps give us a view of the cloaca?

Re: Is she a he?

yeah that's what I need to see, is a pic of a cloaca and tail... judging by the second pic, it looks to be female to me.

I tried that once. This was the best I could do. I've never seen any spurs.

Re: Is she a he?

My vote goes to: Male

The elongated, slender tail with large spurs...I'd put money on it.

What spurs? I've never seen any.
I think those are just dark scales in those pics.

I would have bet money on female until I seen the last pic. The spur on the left shows black and the one on the right appears blue. I've been wrong before.
