    sperm plugs look like??
    Ok guys sorry if this is really dumb. Im new to ball pythons, and I bought two females 2010 that are young. I bought a 3rd female off of fauna. I did the research on the guy I bought it from and he had some good boi threads and worked with me really well so I wasnt concerned. The female I bought is a 800 gram female pinstripe. I went to change her newspaper tonight and I picked her up and looked at the vent area. There were two little brown points one on each side. Ive heard of sperm plugs obv for guys but I dont own any males yet so havent seen any upclose. What do they look like is it possible he sent me a male? I tried taking pictures but its really blurry :-X

    Sorry for the ramble! Thanks

    Are you thinking her spurs are sperm plugs? Is it possible to post a pic? If they were sperm plugs they would look like white stringy substance
