hmm 125 for a proven female? please get it probed by a pro and let us know. If it is a female, then you got a pretty good deal man.

Re: 2500+ gram Female
Thanks man I know. That's what i'm saying. Either way It's a gorgeous snake...I'll get pics posted on here soon! but yeah its a beauty as steve erwin would have said. (R.I.P. Steve) but yeah! I especially liked how bright it's brown was in it's pattern. I figured it would be awesome if my pastel is indeed a male and they get to link up next year!

Re: 2500+ gram Female
yeah, I got a pastel at the tampa show...IT was labeld a male when i bought it but after popping it myself, a friend who's pretty good at it and bob over at the herp hobby shop over by my job no one saw any hemipenes. I had it probed as well ....it didn't go in but only a little at first and went in a little farther afterwards but bob didn't give me like a definet answer...He was sure it was a girl and at the end he was like i dunno I think you might have a girl but I'm gonig to say it's a male cuz it went in a little farther on that last probe. He said to come back 6 months later to probe again....I dunno I was gonig to have it probed by neil golli over the weekend but didn't have the time.

Re: 2500+ gram Female
I'm pretty sure it is a male...The guy I got it from Bob hammond said he got it from greg graziani and the he probed it (bob h. did) and it appeared to be a male. He said he was sure it was a male himself but that he could be wrong...I don't know...i just want to know for sure. I got the snake for $150, So if it is a female I got a good deal but....I'm thinking and actually hoping it is a male so I can breed it with my 4 other females next year

Re: 2500+ gram Female
I recently bought a large female too from a pet dealer (breeder/shop) that was "supposed" to be a proven breeder. I have still yet to get it probed by a pro and weigh it... but I got it for a deal! 60$ That guy I goto sells all his ball pythons at $60 a pop no matter the sex or the size.

Well I've never paid more than $150 for a bp and the time I did was for the pastel...$125 for the female...I am really confident that it is a female but I WILL have it probed by a pro within the next couple days..

Re: 2500+ gram Female
my other yearly and females I paid $30-$40 for and those have been probed females. I got a year and a half old female the other day from a woman for free. Her boyfriend was afraid of snakes and made a deal with her that if she gets rid of the snake he'll get her a dog...She got her dog..
