Mismatched spurs? and morph pairing question
I had my ball out today and happened to notice that she/he has way mismatched spurs. She/he is about 5ft long and 2,808 grams after not having eaten in close to a month. The previous owner said that she is in fact a she.
The spur on her left side sure is large but the other almost is nonexistent. I was curious if this is any sign that she may be a he? I'm sure that some females just happen to have large spurs but I am curious. I haven't had her probed myself.
Secondly, hoping that she is in fact a female, my fiance and I have been wanting to purchase a male of some morph to breed with her eventually. As far as I know she is just a normal, not het. for anything. The color in the photos is spot on with what she looks like in person. Her belly is completely white as well. I know choosing morphs is based on personal preference of course, but I'm curious what you guys would do if you had her in your collection.
Thanks!
Savannah

Thanks Jon. I understand that you can't determine sex by spurs alone. I was just curious about the mismatched spurs and if any of you guys have gals that happen to have large spurs since it is "usually" a male trait.

My little 600g female normal juvie has bigger spurs than my 3+ year old male Pastel.
[but I don't mention it in front of him so he won't get a "complex"]
And yes, she is definitely a girl and he's been a daddy many times over so there's no question who's what....:)

That's a beautiful snake, BTW.

Males and females can have different sized spurs large and small and sometimes they can lose them.
