Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
I think male... I've honestly never had a female pet, I'll stick to the boys. :D
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
i found with my snakes, all of them for that matter not just the balls, that the males tend to be better dispostioned. except for my lrgest female ball shes such a sweet baby girl.

I originally wanted a male, and thought I bought a male. Now it appears she is a female. Size wise a male seemed more appealing, but I realized that should she outlive me then yes, females would be easier to rehome. I always think long term, I have never rehomed any of my animals but with a BP's very long lifespan planning is important.
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
Being my first snake, I did my research based on what I had for housing, and what exactly I was looking for, I knew I wanted a ball python after all of my research and gathered that being my first snake keeping experience, I wanted to go the smaller route and get a male.
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
honestly i would prfer male beacuse males get smaller than females and im a begginer and as i grow ill move to bigger snakes.
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
Id get normal females and mostly male morphs ;] make more morphs for cheaper
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
I voted male...it is what i bought. I have a male YB and it was in my current price range.
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
Can't have enough females! :D I think you should buy female everything, morphs and normals! Then when the females are about a year old ish, buy your males for them.
Re: Male vs Female... Which do you prefer?
Since I like to breed my animals it all depends on what I need. But chances are if it's a co-dom combo it'll be a boy, and if it's a recessive gene I may just go a head and get the girl. I intend to breed my blood girl and I'm going to do the same with any other blood girls I get but what I like to do for them is just buy the girls as babies, raise them up, and when they're nearly old enough to breed I'll buy the boy.
