 SEXING SNAKES:

 


Probing:

Use this method on both immature and mature animals. Take caution when probing, as inexperience may cause permanent damage. Providing that probing is done correctly, it is the most accurate and safe method of sexing your snake.

  Male: Female:
Probe Depth: 7-12 Scales 2-5 Scales

 

 


Popping:

Use this method on immature animals. I suggest visiting a specialist who can demostrate the proper technique before attempting it on your own. Tail kinks, and other health problems can occur if done incorrectly.

Female: No hemipenes present! Just a small pink "bump".

 

Male: Hemipene with bright red blood vessel is present. There are two!
