Feeding and behavior is also a good way to tell but obviously cant really do that over the computer
Of course. I understand! As I said, I wasn't arguing. I'm quite familiar with most of you with the chondro collective and/or the chondro coalition and have a healthy respect for you all.

Btw, just to be clear, my male, Hunter, is a proven 9 year old male. He is a PNG x OSHY and is fully 5 1/2 feet in length. Not too sure of his gram weight, but I would estimate him at about 1200gm +/-. He was purchased from Rocky Gravley as an adult a few years ago and we've kept his weight and condition perfect. He eats 1 large or jumbo mouse every 2 weeks and while he never refuses, lol, he is in no way overweight. I only bring this up to illustrate that there are some large males out there and size alone is not really an indicator of sex. But I know you weren't suggesting that it was - again, this is only an example for the OP's benefit.

Sorry to get a wee bit off topic.........
