    I need help!!!
    I need help ( a pic or video would be great) with sexing ball pythons. I've searched youtube, but can not find a good pic of a female being "popped". My question is do the females have dark red spots on both sides like hemipenes, but do not pop out? I'm having trouble getting the hemipenes to come out.

    Don't push the issue. I tried and tried by viewing videos as well, but really the only way to learn it and do it right is to have someone show you who knows what they are doing. Don't put your snake in danger!
    If you really need to sex your snake pronto, pick up a Snake Sexing Probe Kit, and watch an instructional video on that. Probing can be much safer and easier!:gj:

    Do not attempt to pop your Bp if you don't know what your doing. You can seriously injure or harm your snake..

    Probing can also cause alot of damage if done incorrectly....

    Thanks for adding that. You could try to find a breeder, or someone who works with snakes, that knows how to sex snakes. And ask them if they would be willing to show you how in person.

    Thanks for the insight, but do the females also have the dark red spots where the hemipenes would be on a male??? No one has answered this question......:confused:
