    New to site! What does .1 snake mean?

    New to the site here, and I keep seeing peoples signature which looks like this


    0.1 Cinnamon (Callidora)
    0.1 Het Pied (Hermia)
    0.2 Pastel (Pandora & Philothea)
    0.1 Spider (Sophia)
    0.2 Normal (Sindri & Nephele)

    What do the points mean. I've seen ones that even have 3.1 normal ball pythons. Sorry to be a total newbie, but I want to list my snakes in my signature. I guess listing my guitar pedals, and guitars is a lot easier on Harmony-Central.

    They're not points.

    1.0.0 is one male.
    0.1.0 is one female.
    0.0.1 is one unknown.
    0.0.0.4 is the amount of eggs.

    So if someone has.......
    3.1.0 ball pythons then that means they have 3 males, 1 females, and zero eggs?

    Re: New to site! What does .1 snake mean?

    I've never seen an egg count tacked onto the numbering system.

    Typically, it's just a way to show how many of each sex you have. The first number is males...the second number is females...and IF you have some unsexed animals, then they would be the third number.

    0.1 = 1 female
    2.0 = 2 males
    1.2 = 1 male, two females
    0.1.2 = 1 female and two unsexed

    The gecko people will sometimes do the fourths place for eggs, not so much with snakes.
