    Help?

    OK so, it was cleaning day for the boys of the pack so i was also going to get pictures of the group. They're all very pretty in my opinion (all but the yb and butter enchi,they're QT still) and i adore taking pictures.
    I thought I'd take a group shot and single shots.

    Now my males in question are my 'special het clown' (gunther) who I'm Pretty sure is neither of those, my pastel yb (sirius),and Germany my Mojave spider het hypo.

    I've seen both Germany and sirius popped, male. Gunther came to me as a male from a friend. never popped myself or had it done I've not needed to. He's not a breeder yet.

    Gunther needs a new name. HE turns out to be a SHE. How do i know? Because freaking sirius decided he was a macho man and locked. A visual lock i turned away to get Germany who was being a total jerk (he didn't want to be handled so he's not out and need his tub cleaned but I'm letting him settle I'm not gonna to stress him out) and after fighting with him for a few minutes turned back around to the holding tub where gunther and sirius were and yeah.

    No this isn't supposed to happen remember when i said gunther wasnt for breeding? Because he's not as big as the other males, but now he's a she, and that's A BIG PROBLEM. I need help, advice, something, because she is not suitable size, she's 883 grams.

    What do i do? they've since separated,and they're in their own tubs with gunther now going to be put into the girls section tomorrow.... but I'm freaking out that's not a breeding size and the last thing i want is for her to get hurt or something.

    I should have double checked the gender. I didn't cuz she was a good friend who was sure of it, the breeder she bought it from sold it to her as a male.

    Exactly what size is she? With just one lock, I am not sure it would even mean much.

    Males WILL lock with other less dominant males. There is a good chance he is still a HE.

    Wait, what? Really? I didn't know this was a thing in snakes! I thought males did battle to decide dominance, not... flirted with the girly boys. XD

    they will sometimes put a rival of the same sex in their place without the presence of the opposite sex to show dominance sometimes by locking. however they battle/wrestle over mates. here's 2.0 Carpet Pythons fighting over a girl.
