I guess you can call me a glass half full kind of girl. We were at a reptile show yesterday about 1 hour away from home and I was checking out this full grown normal female. We were considering buying her to start breeding.
I was checking her out, looking for mites, ticks, scale rot, scars etc. and I guess I rubbed its belly a little too much because it peed/pooped all over the front of me. But that wasn't what surprised me.When it did, it popped and I could see hemipenis. Since I am new at this and have never sexed a snake and only know it by reading and pictures, I didn't say anything. I just gave the snake back when another guy behind me said that isn't a female that was a male! Check it out! and confirmed what I was thinking.
So needless to say I went to bathroom took off my top, washed it in the sink and rang it out. All the time smiling from ear to ear feeling very luckyI was peed on when I was because it kept me from buying an overpriced, large normal male to add to my already largely male collection. Which is currently at 3 males and two females.
