    Well I just called a vet and I told him how much does he charges for sexing a ball python and he told me $60 are they ripping me off or what's your opinion?

    I do not know how much vets charge for this but I think it is expensive for something that is that easy and only take a few second.

    YOur best bet is to try to find people in your area that can sex your snake for you and show you how to do it, and often the best way to do this is to ask on the forum to see if people might be in your area and be willing to to that for you. ;)

    If you need it sexed and have no other way of getting it done then thay are not ripping you off.Do you have a reptile speciality store near you? If you do call them they might do it for free.

    I've ask my local petshop if they sex ball pythons because they have some but with mites and all that...and they said they did and i told them to demonstrate it to me with one of theirs and they were just pushing the cloaca and they were just hurting the poor ball python so i decided not to have them check it
