Not knocking the guy,but does he really know how to properly probe? Sometimes people will "ACT" like they know what they are doing and just "guess" at the sex.It is possible to have the snake tighting that area,probe is to big or some just dont get the probe in the correct area.All of these examples can give a false reading.Is it possible to have a second opinion or someone that knows how to pop them? I would hate for you to accept that your corn is a female and then down the line you find out he was REALLY a he :eek: .If you never plan on breeding then the sex really does not matter . Like i said not trying to be rude just looking out for ya
