We purchased a "female" pastel (person we bought her from said she was probed as a female), but her size would make me assume otherwise. She is a 98'and only 6ft, built like our males. Now that we have decided to sell her we need to know her sex. We do not currently have probing tools, so any advice on visually sexing would be appreciated, or tell us what you think based on pictures (although they are crappy ones).

Thanks,

You really should not sell it as either without knowing. Does it seem to have large spurs??

Of course not, as for now shes for sell as unsexed.

Don't be too quick to judge. A few years ago I purchased what was supposed to be a proven het for albino female...when I received the snake and took a look at it I thought "Man, there's no way this thing is a female!" It was about 6' and rather slender, especially for a proven female, the tail looked like a male and it had noticeable spurs. Well after quarantine it proved to be very tame and beautiful animal so I figured I'd keep it around for a while(mind you I had still not probed it). This year I had an extra male so I figured what the heck! Courting began within a few days and I still was very doubtful. I can now say that SHE has ovulated gone through her P.O.S. and is due in early June. So what I guess what I'm trying to say is it may very well look like a male but she might just be a bit of a "tomboy"!
Best of luck
