Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
Females because I am too male-heavy... hahaha ;)
But actually when I think about my collection in particular, most of my males are more outgoing than my females.
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
Right now I'm going to be at 6.7 and after this breeding season I should be at about 6.10 or 11. So far my preference with female's is their eventual size annd of course I will be needing them for breeding in the future. Big female's are super cool!!

Very good point Aleesha!
I also agree with Robin that it depends what your plans are and what you already have. If recessive, I try to always go for the female first because she has to grow up a couple of years before being ready to breed. If co-dom, I tend to buy the male. But then again, if a particular snake catches my eye, all that good advice goes right out the window! :D
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
In the end, male or female, morph or normal...they all produce snake poop. So I figure since you'll be picking that up for a pretty good number of years....choose the snake you personally love! :D
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
correct me if I am wrong, but aren't males more likely to go off feed for periods of time as adults than females are? I believe it's part of their breeding instincts to fast...... so females might be a bit easier on the nerves :)
I think I am preferring males....I like a more slender body shape.
This is all just aesthetics talking....I don't have enough experience with keeping snakes to have any other basis for preference :P
my male BP is quite outgoing though...that was an interesting observation someone posted earlier.
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?

Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
i have to live with enough females....
but i can never say no to a female BP
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
Female only because they get a lil bigger...
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
heh, we all have the same reasoning for liking females haha
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
I'd probably choose a male since, like someone said, they stay smaller than the fems.
Boy, people sure like making polls around here...not that its a bad thing; just making an observation (shields head from thrown produce).
