Hi!
The numbers represent the sex. In order - the 1st number represents male, 2nd number - female, 3rd number - unsexed/unknown.

Example: 1.2.8 Burmese Pythons

That means they have 1 male, 2 females and 8 unsexed/unknown Burmese Pythons.

That's a good question, by the way. And one that gets asked often.

Have a good one!
