    Sext a snake by the spurs??
    Can you tell if your ball is a male or female by how big their spurs are??

    No. Popping or probing are the only definitive methods.

    Not for ball pythons, Boas can be sexed by spur length but ball pythons need to be probed or popped.

    Nope. Popped or probed, but I've read where people had problems popping and I guess you could possibly end up with the wrong sex.

    I will have to find a broader in my area or find out how much it is at a vet, I would try it, but worried that I mite hurt the snake

    Spurs are also layers of retained shed and can easily be popped off and grow again with more sheds.
