    Re: How do you sex your hatchlings?

    I am not happy with sexing wee hatchlings so I will simply take them to a friend who lives local and ask her to pop them for me Larger snakes I probe but not the tiny babies

    Same. I clean them up after they emerge and pop them so I can mark them down and set them up.

    I pop them once they all emerge.

    Hatchlings are easier to pop to me than juvi's or adults

    Very true.
    Some males even evert their hemipenes as soon as you start getting your thumbs in position.
    Makes it easy when they decide to be exhibitionists.

    Re: How do you sex your hatchlings?

    I pop them right out of the egg after I've washed the egg slime off of them. Then again after their first shed just to make sure.
