    Seriously you can't tell by looking - maybe try finding members close to you who know how to sex them?

    Unless you're planning on breeding, it's gender is whatever you want it to be. I promise the snake doesn't care if you give it a super manly name and it turns out to be a girl or vice versa (I'm partial to Polly Prissypants, but I've been watching too much south park lately).

    Probing or popping is the only way to tell the gender

    Welcome to the Forum Zorro.

    Best of luck getting your snake sexed.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    1.2 Coastal Carpet Pythons
    Mack The Knife, 2013
    Lizzy, 2010
    Etta, 2013
    1.1 Jungle Carpet Pythons
    Esmarelda , 2014
    Sundance, 2012
    2.0 Common BI Boas, Punch, 2005; Butch, age?
    0.1 Normal Ball Python, Elvira, 2001
    0.1 Olive (Aussie) Python, Olivia, 2017

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.

    Ask the local vets or pet stores if anyone is familiar with sexing snakes. I got lucky. My manager was a breeder

    1.2 Normal
    1.1 Red-tail
    0.1 Albino corn
    2.1 Ball Python(Sterling, Boots, & Eden)
    1.0 Kenyan Sand Boa(Anakin)
    0.1 Bearded Dragon(Beatrix/Trixie)
    0.1 Kitty Cat(Willow)
    1.0 Chihuahua(Panda-Bear)
    2.0 Betta Fish(Finnley & Pescado)
    0.2 Rats(Mishka & Laney)
