Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Can anyone point me to a site that covers palpitating BRB's?

Thanks!!!!!

I assume you mean palpating to sex the snakes?

I don't know any sites but it has been described here on the forum multiple times.

Basically you just run your thumb/finger tip along the belly ofthe snake gently applying pressure from a little bit above the vent to a ways past it. If it is a male then you will feel a small but very distinct lump. If not then it is a female.

It's very easy to learn if you have a known pair of BRB's to compare to each other. If you do not have access to a pair you can handle I do not know of any easy way to learn/describe it.

Hope this helps.
