Sexing was wrong

So i bought a male Ball python from Petsmart about a month ago there where 2 caged together I asked for the male and he grabbed the bigger of the two and said it was the male , I believed him because I knew nothing about snakes at the time , well after popping "him" today he has no hemipenes what so ever then I popped my friends hatchling male and there was toni hemipenes so Dante is a she and i need a new name … My other snakes name is Selene I want another female name thats pretty cool if anyone wants to help I currently have no names in mind because this came as a shock

U sure u did it right popping little ones can be hard at 1st cause ur scared u squeeze to hard I just made a good video on popping .. u should check it out .. lmk if u want the link

send me the link I'm pretty sure i did it right bc i popped my other female and i popped his male and i got hemipenes on his and my female i didn't and when i popped my "male" i got no hemipenes and i did it 3 times every time showed no hemipenes

Nice video I will try it your way and also was that a thermostat on the third box ? The wire I didn't recognize it

Yea its a thermal n hydro reader .. there ok I bought a bunch of them of eBay a while back fo rlike 4 bucks I bought them just to measure humidity ... but I hardly use them anymore .. I just set up a humidifier in my snake room n used them to see if there's a big difference

Ya i just use a humidity gauge but i have thermostats , My humidity stays average about 40-50 but around shed i mist and add wet moss bumps it up to high 80's I only keep it there for a few days bc I'm scared of scale rot but the sheds have been great since i started adding the moss in the hides

and once again it shows no hemipenes i think the employee grabbed any snake and said a random sex because I'm starting to see more and more the information they told me is false like she told me to get a 55 for a baby ball i have more then 2/3 of the tank blocked off now bc they had no clue

Either way, what's wrong with the name Dante? Who gives a crap if it's a "girl" or "boy" name. :) If you wanted a bad ass female name, there it is.
Gender is what you make it. It is fluid, and it is a human invention.

Cheers!
