Male or Female

[beaglegod]

I know ,I know ,stupid question, but hey Im not embarassed to ask.
Is their any reason to choose one over the other, besides needing a certain sex for breeding purposes? :?:

I personally don't think so,
Some females will become a bit larger then males, but their personallities don't seem to have much to do with what sex they are.

In my experience, brief though it has been, adult males and females have the same chance to be extremely calm, and have wonderful dispositions. Females typically get larger, that's the only difference I've seen.
In other words, I agree with Rusty!

Females are da bomb man. Thicker, bigger, and the females I've had have been awsome in terms of looks. I just like em because they are bigger, lol. But they cost an arm and a leg!

Well I can get a nice looking male now or I can put it off a bit and wait for a female, the guy I was gonna buy from sold all 5 females he had to one person.

ive got a question is it possible for a bp to be to young to tell what sex it is.

no. i dont think you can probe them as babies*but im not sure of that*. but you can "pop" them. this is exposing the hemipenis (or lack of)
heres an artical on it. but i wouldnt do it yourself unless someone can personally show you how to do it.reading about it really isnt good enough.
people at pet stores like petco, and places like it, wouldnt know how to do it. someone at a reptile specialty store, or a vet would probably know how to pop baby snakes.
