    Perfect sperm plug from..."Female"!?!

    Ok I'm pretty sure I've just pulled the biggest most perfect sperm plug from what I thought was a female lol.

    http://i863.photobucket.com/albums/a...psnmreoi0f.jpg

    It's insane because I've popped she/he/it or whatever before and never got hemipenes (talk about my popping skills lol :p) I've only ever gotten what seemed to be scent glands that are just little white bulbs on each side. And I've seen she/he/it tail wag and raise she/he/it's tail for my little male Bubo whose too young to bred and not interested (maybe because there's no girl to be interested in lol :p) I know this has probably happened to someone on this forum. Just wanted to share my new discovery!

    Umm, well congrats I guess lol. How old was he when you got him? Popping a snake with size to it can be less than 100% accurate, allegedly they can hold their hemipenes in.

    I got him when he was just a hatchling, not sure of exact age since it was a reptile shop. They don't keep up with dates.

    Ball pythons don't really produce sperm plugs. Only sheds of their genitals. Females also have sheds. All of my girls have produced what look like plugs. But they're still girls. Sperm plugs are something that some species use to seal up the female's genital tracts to prevent other males from procreating with her. Koalas are an example. Ball pythons can have multiple sires to a clutch because they don't have sperm plugs.
    Ball Pythons:
    1.0 Hypo Clown; 1.0 Enchi Freeway; 0.1 Ivory pos. pastel, super pastel, butter (Penelope); 0.1 Hypo Chocolate GHI Pastel pos Vanilla (Smokey); 0.1 YB pied; 0.1 enchi YB/asphalt; 0.1 VPI Axanthic (Special Cookies); 0.1 Albino pos YB; 0.1 Hypo Clown; 0.1 Hypo Spinner
    Colubrids:
    1.0 Coachwhip; 1.0 Lavender ph hypo hoggie; 0.1 het hypo ph lavender hoggie (Fingermuncher)
