    King snake sexing?
    I have a banana lavender albino cal king, that I need to get sexed. Is there anyone in the DFW metroplex that would be willing to teach probing or even just sex my snake. I would go to a vet in the area but there are no reptile specialist around here and the vet I work for would try but I'm reluctant to let him since he's got as much experience as I do with probing.

    Please help a brother out!

    I'm in Houston so I am still a far cry from you. My suggestion: go to youtube. Believe it or not, they have quite a few videos on basic sexing and can even teach probing. If I were close, I'd help you out for sure!

    Thank you, however I've tried the YouTube thing but it's just not the same as seeing it in person.

    Post some pics of the ventral side of the tail. If it's big enough you can tell from that.

    I will try but getting the evil one to stay still by myself will be challenging.

    Not trying to hijack this thread, but is it possible to also sex Milk Snakes this way?
    I'm familiar with sexing BPs but have no idea when it comes to Milks. I'd love to know the sexes of my two Nelson's. :)

    If they're big enough, it's sometimes possible. A couple feet would be the minimum.

    Pictures not happening, before showering I was covered in musk, poo and blood. My blood of coarse scruffy is fine, like nothing ever happened. I do have some restraint tubes at work that may be my best bet. Honestly, I have handled friendlier rattle snakes.
