New Baby Python =)

Turtlegirl May 29, 2004 09:28 PM

Hi Everyone,

Well I brought home a new baby ball python tonight, ( Ya! My second one!! ) and he(?) is absolutely beautiful. (Will post pics soon!) He's only about 14 inches long... Does anyone know how old he might be? (I'm guessing he's very young..) Also, is it possible to tell if it is a male or female when it is this small? lol, I'm hopeing for a male since the python I already have (pictured below) is a female.
Thanks!!

14"=hatchling.....to know the gender.....have it probed or "popped" by someone who knows how to do either method properly.

Hey what type of baby ball is it? I've seen confusing names for the type of color and stuff. But the "normal?" onces look the best, like yours.
