Today my neonate green anaconda arrived. ~400g little guy. He is supposed to be a male, but I wanted to double check myself. After doing a bit of searching on sexing greens, I found a lot of conflicting information. Some sites said spur sexing was very accurate, while other sites said this was useless till about 6ft . Some sites mentioned probing, but nothing about expected depth, while I came across other information that said that probing greens was difficult and that they dont probe like other snakes. Could someone give me some first hand solid information based on experience for sexing a green this small? Much appreciation.

Cheers,
Anthony
