My camera does not work with my new computer, but I'm going to get a new one soon.
I have heard that probing can do damage, is that true? I used to probe all of my ball pythons, but I wouldn't attempt it myself with the monitors. I would take them to my vet it I thought it were possible.
Do NOT attempt to probe varanids. If you have no intention on breeding, just give it a little time. By the time they are a year old you will be able to tell from the base of the tail, much larger with bulges on males.
