Hey guys..

just looking for some opinions on this snake. I know my pics are pretty crappy but I would appreciate your opinions.. I do not have probes and have never done it, so I'll have to find someone to check him/her for me eventually.

This salmon boa was sold to me as a female, when I had 'it' out last night I noticed some things I never paid attention to before. This boa's spurs are sorta long, they taper, they curve and there's a point. There is a bulge in the tail below the vent! Oh my! The tail shape itself is short like a female, but these other things are making me think I've got a boy! What do you think?
Here's a tail shot then a close up of the bulge.. it's harder to see in the pictures than in person of course..



I mean.. it's no big deal, mistakes happen, but there goes my sunglow plans for now! lol


Well thanks for looking,TGIF!!!
