Re: Sex in snakes
i'm not an expert on this by any stretch of the imagination. that being said, i was under the impression that "poping" only works to determine sex if the snake is a hatchling and it won't work if the snake is more than roughly a month old. after that, you have to probe to determine sex.

Re: Sex in snakes
Yes, popping anything older than a month or so is not only very difficult, but potentially dangerous. Especially if you have no experience with it. If you can, have a reptile vet probe it for you, or invest in a set of probes. They are not expensive.

Re: Sex in snakes
if you do not have a place around that specifically sells reptile probes, check some medical supply places....the will most likely have something good to use.just look around on the net....and find something similar.

I regularly pop ball pythons of all ages. There is nothing dangerous about it.

Re: Sex in snakes
popping older snakes is more of an art than a procedure .. dont force it .. try some hatchlings first to develope the proper technique.. in order to pop an older animal it HAS to be relaxed

No...stick to snake probes, not misc. medical instruments. There are several places where you can order them online.
www.tongs.com
www.beanfarm.com
etc...
