And you know what, I still don't know how the heck to pop a snake to check its sex. I don't even know how to probe either lol. If I REALLY need to know, I make an appointment with my herp vet and let her do it. "Owning" reptiles doesn't necessarily mean you know what you are doing lol. But if you got it all squared away, good job. now just let that poor little girl be or you are going to stress her out so bad, she might quit eating and then you will have real problems.
I know

I just don't want people calling her inexperienced is all. She's no expert but she does have a good deal of knowledge in the Herp field. Plus I owe her for taking care of Cookie.

As far as Cookie, she's safe in her habitat and apparently pretty laid back and at ease. To be on the safe side though, I'm going to hold off from switching her to rats until things are settled down.

(I was told to up the size of her food.)

ALSO! Since I was at the vet, I had them do an RI culture (yay payday) and I'll be hearing back if it's confirmed or not, but they don't think she has it.

Though, this all came from an animal hospital vet, and not a dedicated Herp vet (the closest one listed online seems to be one in Ohio...? And then another all the way in Tennessee.... I live in the smack dab of Kentucky, so if anyone knows better on this please give me details)
