I am confused on how you know what size probe to use?

What size would you use to sex:

Baby ball python (not hatchling)
2 foot ball python
Adult Python

Full grown burmese

Adult Corn snake,

ect. How do you tell what probe to use on what size snake?

Learning to probe a snake is something that should be learned in person by someone experienced to show you. I wouldn't recommend trying to learn from video or on forums.

Its hard to tell you the size. I just eye ball it, But what I do is go one size smaller than you think it would be. If it is to big you might think it is a female, when it is a male. If it is your first time have a firiend help hold the snake and try it then use a smaller probe to make sure you got a good reading. Don't push just rool. It is not hard.

Here's a good vid from Justin Kobylka's youtube channel. He started a new "pro tips" series of videos. Hope it helps! http://www.youtube.com/user/jkobylka.../1/9QqW_PhMBEY
