    Pinstripe?

    Hello. I have recently acquired a ball python from a friend who no longer wanted it and am not 100% sure what it is. Looking at pictures I want to say it's a pinstripe. Also how would I tell what the sex is. [IMG] best image hosting site free[/IMG]

    Pic works on my end. Yes, it's a Pinstripe. The only way to sex a ball python is to have it probed (inserting a slender probe into their cloaca) or popped (exposing their sex organs by placing pressure near their vent) by an experienced keeper. There are no other ways, as ball pythons are not sexually dimorphic, meaning that can't tell what they are by just looking at them.

    A very nice looking pin from that pic. Is that dorsal stripe completely solid or does it break up further down?
