I have no clue. I didn't mean to say you were wrong, I've just told him not to worry too much about it. My bad.

it means in case of emergency and you need to sell it/give it away, its easier since females are wanted more.

When I took my first bp to a herp vet to get it sexed, he told me that with females it can happen. I also asked a breeder when I was thinking about getting a male v. female.

Then that vet was a twit.. Females will only lay eggs if follicles have been fertilized and they have then ovulated. If they have never been with a male, then they won't lay eggs(unless you're talking about parthenogenosis, but that's an extenuating circumstance). They aren't birds.

Well then I stand corrected. I assumed the vet who had been in practice for over 30 years knew what he was talking about. I guess we all make mistakes. Don't pin this one on me haha.

Steelerfreak, my apologies. I was mis-informed

i guess im going to go with the girl then lol...only because it grows slower
