    Turnaround times for RGI Genetic Testing
    Has anyone used Rare Genetics to sex their ball python, and if so, how long after they received the shed did you get results? The website shows shed received, and it’s been two weeks, just wondering how much longer I should expect.
    Rationale is I might have an mis-sexed snake on my hands. My boy is almost 1000g at a little over a year, and is over three feet. I’ve watched videos on popping and probing, but this is my first pet snake and I don’t feel confident in not hurting him. This option was less stress and costly than a vet visit, but now my lack of patience is getting the better of me!

    I sent one in awhile back for morph testing. People I've spoken to have said it can take around 3 months depending on their backlog.

    So you’re saying I should stop checking twice a day haha
    Thank you for the intel, I couldn’t find a timeline on MorphMarket.

    Heads up- just got my results back- little over 2 weeks.
    Turns out I just have a big boy!

    That's pretty fast, & I'm glad you can move forward now, knowing what you have.

    Oh wow, the sex testing must be way faster! Congrats!
    The shed test also seems like a really convenient way to test, especially for venomous species.

    edit to add: this post reminded me to check on mine, they updated to say they ran it but the first test went bad so they're trying again.

    My test is done as well - from the time they got the shed was about 35 days until results, and like I said they had to run it twice.
