That's so sweet!

Hey, that's a good picture for a question I have...

Is it safe to assume that the one with the thicker tail is the male? or is it just older?

Is that a good way of telling a male from a female, aside from probing?

Well I did know for sure what they were before i put them together..haha..not good to leave it to chance and the only way to know for sure is to Probe. Fatty deposits could cause some differences in widths and sizes of tails too so just visual could be misleading.

In this instance the Male is the Banana Cal king which is on Top.

My Thayeri was probed when I bought him, and I'm sure he's probably a male, but you're always seeing or hearing about somebody being mistaken...

I guess I'm one of those people who likes to do it themselves, so I can see with my own eyes, hehe

beautiful snakes by the way =)
