I was hoping that you can get an idea of whether this is a boy or girl from these pics.

Sorry Matt,

A close-up ventral and sideways shot would help a lot.

Thanks, now I'm even more sure that mine is male.

I think those pictures pretty well illustrate the difference, Kevin. Good post!

Yeah, mine has that hardly noticeable "bump thing" before it starts tapering, I think where the hemipenes are.
