I was hoping that someone might be able to help determine the gender of my snake by looking at this picture. This is my first snake and my dad is a bad photographer, but I was still curious as to whether or not I am actually looking at the musk glands of a female ball python.

This was my first real time trying to pop a ball python and there aren't many photos online of what the female should look like and not many good pictures of males at that.



It is not so important as I don't plan on breeding him/her but just for curiosity's sake I was wondering if anyone out there had some input.
