Gender

[ProXimuS]

Funny request, but if I were to post pictures of my snakes "vent"(as I've seen it being referenced as here) would anyone be interested/willing to give me their best shot at "his" gender. I'm calling "him" a "him" because from what I've read, I'm guessing that's the correct gender, but I don't acutally have any experience in knowing what I'm looking at :p

No problem. Just get a good picture of the underside of his tail.

Post some photos and you'll soon have a few opinions. :)

Here's a link to a thread that will teach you how to visually sex your snake and show you the kind of photos to post.

Not a funny request at all...we ask people to post pics of their snake's vents all the time so that we can determine the sex.

Hey thanks Steve for the link to that thread.

Here's the best I can get. And now after looking at all those pictures I'm thinking "he" might be a "she.":p

male

Also I got a couple better pictures of him, would any one like to tell me what they think he is? I'm really mostly assuming "it"(for now:p) is t.proximus orarius because I live by the gulf coast.

Hope all these pictures are good enough. I'm using the cam on my laptop.

I'm no expert but I'm leaning male. Hopefully others will back me up :p

Male all the way. Vent, head and body structure.

Thanks yall!! :D I guess I was right to begin with!

If yall don't mind, and if you can tell, would you mind telling me what genus and species you think he is?

[guidofatherof5]

Looks like you are in prime Gulf Coast territory.

Unless he plans on getting a sex change... male!

[ProXimuS]

Awesome guys:) Thanks a million!!!
Looks like I did some pretty good research, since I really only assumed he was a male t.proximus orarius:cool: *pats self on back*
