Sexing help

Great idea Steve!

And I promise to stay quiet James

I might be able to get some photos of popped male babies....can get good closeups with my new camera...would you want some photos of babies popped???

Would it be useful for identifying the sex of a given snake though? I'd like to see those photos, Don, but I wonder about their suitability for Steves' new thread. I think the idea is to be able to sex a larger snake by it's appearance/build/tail length etc.

I think it would be good to have the baby pics, too. Just specify that they are a baby and that they've been popped male/female. Not everyone is comfortable popping even babies and sell babies on visual sexing alone. It could help?

well.....can get photos of adults....didn't know if the babies pics would help....if this is just for adult snakes I can get photos of several different species.

I won't be able to create the thread tonight. Tomorrow is much better for me.

James,
Maybe 1 or 2 photos of popped males might be good. I myself have never seen it, but 1 or 2 should be all that's necessary since that isn't the identification method most of us will be using. what do you think. I'm brainstorming at this point.

Sounds great, Don. Steves' new thread should be up tomorrow... so let's all gather our best sexing pics, ready to make this a useful and informative thread!

will be a day or two before I get pics.....Nikki went with her sisters and brother to their aunts for the night. she loves to help me with pics....and I kinda need another hand with the photos

Slow and steady. We don't want to rush it. Only clear, focased photos. This thread will not only help us members but those thousands of guest who just visit. Let's do it up right.

I posted a few pics....a lot didn't quite turn out....will take more later in better light.

What you posted looks great. They are a great addition to the thread and should help us all become more aware of what to look for.
Thanks Don.
