Corallus sexing???

babysdaddy May 08, 2008 10:14 AM

I know how to sex snakes, but I've never sexed an ATB. Does anyone know the difference in subcaudal scute depth between males and females. My ATB, from GHI, is so small...don't want to injure him/her by POPPING (also extremely squirmy lol). Appreciate any info.

I have actually probed all of the animals from this seasons litters so you should have no problem probing at all. Females should be just a few scales and males should be in the 6 or 7 plus range. Post a pic of the little one so I can see my baby!
