New baby BP owner with a question :)

You have to probe or pop to sex, as others have said. No tape! I have seen a thread about a snake with a wound from getting stuck on a mouse trap, not good.

Thanks guys for all the help! And sorry for the late reply.

I don't use tape, but thank you very much for letting me know about that information. I didn't know balls liked to play with it :( I bundled the cords with a zip tie and the cords are outside of the tank.

Also, I control temps with a repti-temp rheostat which I find works quite nicely. Keeps the temps at a constant 90-91, give or take every once in a while. He shares one with my leopard geckos (it has two plug-in slots) and it has always worked well for them :) The tanks are also quite far apart in case anyone is worried about quarantine issues.
