    Probe Size

    I want to buy a probe kit because I want to get some ball pythons people dont want off of craigslist and I want to check and be sure it is a female. I understand how to probe and everything but how do I choose the right probe size. Would this set be sufficient for most fairly large (1000-2500) gram pythons? http://lllreptile.com/store/catalog/...s-3-piece-set/

    I just bought it and its great. Also the probes are ball tipped so the can hurt the bp... i use the 2 middle ones for those size bps.

    I forget where I got mine from - I don't even use them anymore because I pop most everything now. But I want these now!

    I got mine from Tongs.com years ago. They don't have mine anymore but this kit is similar.
