    2 of the 3 vets I took my ball pythons to said that my snake was either too young to properly sex, or too dangerous to attempt to probe or sex at their size... Excuses really. The vet I ended up sticking with double-checked the sex of my snake via probe, even after I told her that I bought the snake as a female. I thought that was pretty cool .

    Too young to sex, that's hillarious.
    We pop them dripping goo straight out of the egg

    No probes here, I want to see the sex organs, there's nothing like a visual to be sure if it's a female or a male.

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a good learn how to pop video? Chad pops and probes, but I honestly don't know how. I've asked Chad to show me, but I guess he likes being the only one that knows in these house

    I don't know the video, but try googling it. It's kinda tricky at first and much easier to learn on a hatchling :p warning, they may pee on you!
