Is this "female" really a male

[IrishBalls]

I bought this pied ball two months ago.

So I decided to try and sex her (tried popping, first time doing it but could not see any hemipenes) and while doing so I seen what I thought looked like sperm plugs stuck on her.

What do you guys think. Images in link below.

My advice get that animal sex by someone knowledgeable, considering the size and the fact that you never successfully pop an animal you will not be able to do so with something that big which has more control.

When you learn to pop you start off with hatchlings and gradually move to adults even than some people can pop hatchlings but can't pop adults.

Yeah I've popped hatchlings but I didnt bother mentioning cas I knew it had no relevance.

I'm more kinda curious about the dried up thing stuck to the cloaca. It looks exactly to me like what I've seen posted as a "sperm plug". I actually think the picture I'm thinking about is one you posted yourself.

Any thoughts on that?

yeah, those kinda do look like penile castings/sperm plugs. you're not popping/rolling correctly, so your squeezing out that gunk instead of popping the hemipenes.
