Is he a normal?

Looks like a normal to me!

As far as determining age and sex... Do you have a weight and length? These can give you approximate ages, but it'll still be hard to tell as these can vary from snake to snake. And as far as I know, there's not really an accurate way to tell sex visually for ball pythons (except that females tend to put on a bit more weight and males stay leaner). Probing is going to be your best bet. I'd set up a vet appointment for that, as well as a general check up. Can't hurt!

Ah. Wonderful, thank you !! I do have his length but no way to weigh him (I have lizards and make hognoses so my scale is teeny tiny). I think I’ll just be taking him to the vet as you suggested. He’s a little dehydrated and has some burns from his previous care so I want to get him looked at. Anyway, thank you again, I really appreciate it!
