Rescued female brb

Thanks! Now, has anyone of you tried probing a brb? How deep does it go if its a female?

Brazilian rainbow boa are difficult to sex based on visible external differences until they are about three years old. Young ones can be sexed by probing. Females will probe a distance of two to four subcaudal scales and males will probe to a depth of eight to twelve subcaudal scales. They can also be sexed by palpitation or popping. All three methods require someone experienced in sexing snakes. Adult males have substantially larger spurs along the side of the vent and also have noticeably thicker bases of their tails due to the invaginated hemipenes. After about eight years of age the heads of both sexes are noticeably larger than on nearly similar sized young adults. This phenomenon of the enlarged head on older animals seems to be more pronounced on red and orange animals than on brownish specimens. This phenomenon also occurs with older Peruvian rainbow boas.

So I guess the deal did not work out in your favor. Its good you rescued it but I think you are moving to fast. Let the snake heal up before you start trying to sex it. The sex does not mater at all right now. Forget about breeding and condensate on its health.

So it means its a feamale? Because when i probed her, it goes down up to 4 sub-caudal scale. Im not planning on breeding her this year. Maybe next year, if i found a male that is being sold near my place.

Cool, glad it is getting better!!! I would love to see a picture of her whole body too :D
