So I had the genders checked today. Turns out that Sable is actually just an exceptionally large male.
Rethinking all breeding plans now - because now I have more males than females. And that's backwards :P
2000 grams isn't that large for a male. That's a bummer though....At least you know now.

My other male is smaller, and is older. I've also seen pictures of males that stayed around 1500g, and didn't get much larger. I kinda assumed that 1300-1600g was about the norm. Sable is the largest snake I own - he's much larger than my other two adult females.
Kinda upsetting - now It's just gonna be very hard to transition over to calling Sable a He. x.x
And thanks Homegrown. Unfortunate - but it happens.
