    Babs(SHE) or Buster(HE)

    In the beginning... everyone said my Radix was a SHE snake... now it looks like She may indeed be a HE snake... Let me know what ya'll think.

    I thinking Male. Body and head structure look male.

    If I'm wrong then I say female.

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    There's not many more experienced than Steve, when it comes to spotting the difference between male and female radix.
    Given that I bought a snake at the weekend thinking it was male and everyone thinks it's female, I sympathise with your predicament. I'd err with male from these latest pics.

    I don't see any taper in this area and this would be about the size of a hemipenis pocket.
    That with the thin body and smaller head makes me think male.
