Male or Female? (Probing)

[BigJay]

So I have just gotten a probing set so I can accurately sex my upcoming hatchlings without having to pop them all.(Popping makes me nervous) While going through to test probe I have one that comes out to be a 5 scale deep, all my males so far have been 7-9 scales deep and my females are all around 4 scales deep. So would you think this 200g 5-6 scales a "small" male or female? When I popped it, it looked like what appeared to be the white scent gland for females but it probes deep around 5 almost 6 scales. I kept it thinking it was a female but now I am confused.

It is a Banana so I was surprised that when I popped it I didnt see hemipenes, but I have seen on the internet that it possible to get female bananas from a male banana (5%?) I am not a lucky person so I will not be surprised if it is a "small" male

Ive searched more and found this thread

Has anyone else probed a female and gotten a 5 scale result? I watched several probing videos (way easier and safer than popping for me). I used vasolene, twirled not pushed the prob in.

Anyone? 5 scale deep probe on a female?

I'd say male. Popping hatchlings should be easy if you roll your finger right to invert the hemis

Popped it again, same as before. It is a 5 scale deep female. yay
