This really belongs in the FAQ, since it gets asked so often!

The code represents the number of males followed by the number of females followed by the number of individuals of unknown sex.

So if you had one male cornsnake, two females, and a clutch of 8 babies that you hadn't sexed you could say you have 1.1.8 cornsnakes.

Oops,

I went back and changed my example to two females instead of one, but forgot to change the actual 1.1 to 1.2.

DOH!
