    I would definitely get them resexed just to be sure. It's not unheard of for two males to lock..

    Case in point:




    These are both very much male. They were separated soon after these pics were taken and the pied was moved to my het pied female's tub where he quickly started courting her. Up until that point he had completely ignored her for several weeks.

    Males will lock with other males if they are really horny. Females will try to get lazy males to lock , but from what I've seen it seems to mostly involve nudging them and shoving their head underneath the male's body.

    Anyway, the snake with its tail on the bottom is definitely a male. The snake on top could be either gender.

    Looking at your pictures the normal is trying to lock up the pastel, that tells me the normal is a male
    I have yet to see a female even try to wrap up a male.
