I am new to the site and decided to introduce myself. My name is Tim and I am 19 years old and just bought my first snake. It was kind of an impulse buy since I have always wanted a snake and decided now was the time to get it. I did not jump overboard like many do when it came to buying this snake. I already had a 10G tank, lid, and light from my 2 red eared sliders(turtles). I was told that all I would need to finish setting up a tank would be some bedding, a place for it to hide, and a water bowl. So I bought some of the bark(researched it first and only found out to make sure not to buy cedar), a corner bowl, and a half log type thing. Not sure on the length yet but so far is eating great. I was told by the pet shop that is was being fed a fuzzie and pinkie once a week so that is what I have fed it once a week for the past 2 weeks(just got it). I am not sure if it is a male or female, is there an easy way to find out, or take it to a vet? Pics to come soon, feeding was today and I am going by what everyone says and not handling it for the next 48 hours.

Also, what does the 0.0.1 and 0.1.1 and all that mean?
