...a mature male? strolling around looking for a mate that's not there....
Based on the current behavior, I'm guessing he's a male anyway...



and my little girl is eating like a pig...


and meeting the puppy...

At least he can look at those nice mushrooms..

Active searching, lack of interest in food, .. typical male king behavior at this time of year.

you like those mushrooms? I airbrushed those about 6 years ago for a class project from a drawing my friend did... I like how they make his color look...
At least I know for sure now that he is a male... makes me happy...

My male Ruthven has been doing the same thing . I do hope to get him a male. I like the Border collie they are super smart dogs . I just saw a movie called "Ole Bob" about Border collies in sheep country Scotland fantastic movie

ahh... the pup isn't a border collie... he's an Australian Shepard... Both are amazing dogs though...

As for the snakes, I've got a couple years to debate on breeding Spot and Fry since I've got a pair now... I might give it a shot, but I know I'll want to keep all the babies...

Nice snakes, and Aussie. My Aussie will sit and stare at the snake tanks. And, on more than one occasion, has tried instigate a carpet python to play with her from behind the glass

yeah... nothing more amusing watchin a male look for an interested female... at least from the females point of view lol

If you are not sure it is a male then take a picture of the end of the tail all the way to the vent. Maybe some of us here can make an educated guess if his tail looks like an obvious male.
