    Chicagoland.... Need some assistance!

    I recently acquired some hatchlings from the infamous bp lottery and I'd like to know what ratio I have. Is there anybody out there (or know of anyone) in the Chicagoland area that could sex some 07' hatchlings for me???? I assumed my vet/exotic wellness center could perform this service but apparently not....

    This may seem like a silly question, but how small is too small??? Do you probe as well??? I have a 9 month old bp that needs some gender assigning.

    Your not far...Im in Chicago Ridge. 9 months is not too small by any means. I just dont like popping babies that might have only eaten once or twice. I will PM you my cell and we can figure out something for sometime later this week.

    You could also talk to some of the breeders at the Du Page fairgrounds show this Sunday, they might be able to help you out with popping or probing them.

    Could also call the Chicago Reptile House, they are pretty good.

    Re: Chicagoland.... Need some assistance!

    Last time I checked with one of the breeders from the swap they said bring em' in... I'm not very keen on that idea. I know I see people walking around all the time with their snakes but god only knows what's floating around. Call me crazy but I really don't want to take the chance of one of my snakes coming home with "something".

    As far as the Chicago Reptile House... Well... Let's just say they haven't received high marks in my book.

    I think I'm going to take firehop up on his offer!
