Transgender Snake? Help!!

[DemmBalls]

I put my immature spider female (500 grams ish) in with a mature female who has been bred this season. They both were ill so I housed them in the same tub due to lack of space. Came in just now and they were locked! What? I know the normal is female because she is proven. The spider probed female for me and another. Dumb as this may sound, is there ANY possible way the spider could do this and still be female? The hemipene or hopefully another organ didn't look like other ones I've seen. Any help is much appreciated !

Housing two sick snakes together seems counter productive. I would get them both adequate asap.

Have you popped the animal (you seem to imply that you've seen its reproductive organ)? Probing is ok, but I like to pysically see what's going on.
