Re: My new baby
maybe someday... if I ever get into breeding. it came from a third season clutch w/o a mate which I didn't know that BP's could retain sperm for that long... and we even think it may be pastel, so if anyone has any opinions on that since I can't really tell the difference

It's not a pastel. He/she is a very pretty normal!

Re: My new baby
are there any easy ways for the average joe to sex a snake? or even make an educated guess?

There are two methods- popping or probing. A young snake like that should be easy to pop, IF you know what you are doing. A Herp Club or Herp Vet in your area should be able to show you how to do either method.

Re: My new baby
is it one of those things you can learn by watching a how to video? or should I just leave that to a professional?

I watched the VPI vid which shows both methods, but I also had real people. BEBO showed me popping & my Herp Vet probing (she owns snakes too). If I can learn it, it can be learned! If you have someone who knows what they are doing show you, you'd be golden. ;)
