Re: Probing 5 scales
I have probed females 4-6 scales and males between 9-12 scales. 5 scales is just too low for males but maybe someone who deals with hundreds of boids can verify that.

But seriously ... how does it "feel"? ... even at one scale of depth you can tell ... males are "tight" and females are "wide" ... once you have a bunch under your belt, it gets pretty easy.

This is pretty close to my Vets description of how he tells to. He says he can usually tell a male even before the probe stops.
