I heard the bump thing is one of the worst ways to tell if it is male or female. But hey, whatever you want.

Oh thats why I always say probing and popping is the actual only way because all snake vary. But my male snake seems to have a "bump" 4-5 scales after his cloaca.

He is gorgeous


I was never really a fan of dark BPs but wow! :snake:

He/She also looks like hes gained alot of weight since youve gotten him! :D

He's a beautiful fella! (Or gal....I take the suggestions of the short tail with a grain of salt...but if he's never been popped or probed, then anyone has a 50/50 chance of guessing right! LOL)

So who can probe or pop. I would like to know for sure

I would help you out but we probably live in different areas. And once you learn how to probe and/or pop its very simple. But popping should only be done on young animals.

Can you tell me Judy if you know how to probe or pop or who here near us can help me out?

I have not yet learned....but I'll bet ya Ken can teach us both. I've been meaning to ask him and just haven't gotten to that particular question yet. LOL

Great idea did not even think of that! I am actually in the process of trying to set up a good time for both of us for me and Johnnie to go over and check out his collection :)

I'm not sure where you read it, but most people here only feed items that are the same size or a bit smaller than the girth. Twice the girth may be a bit big, and result in fasting.

Zeke is one handsome bp! Love that pattern. :sweeet: :love:
