    Oh sorry, I ment the second snake. But really don't trust me, it's just me.

    definitely concinnus....as for sexing by photos, doesn't work on babies...gotta be closer to adult to be able to see the developed hemipenes.

    Re: What species, what sex?

    Best chance to get a sure sexing is to hold them in my hand.
    Second best would be a photo view of the vent.
    As Don said it would be better when they were nearer to adult and sexing by photos will never be 100%.

    The first - female and the second appears to be a male. Hard to tell on the second one

    Re: What species, what sex?

    KitKat, The second picture appears closer or magnified so that makes it a little more difficult. In any event I would say the first one does look male, not sure about the second one. I think another pic of just 'her' tail end might help. They both look like very nice, btw )

    Best of Luck,

    Re: What species, what sex?

    the first one looks like a parietalis to me, but I can't say with the second
    possibly the second one will be going into shed soon
    I think I agree with Udo on the gender
