When should I sex the babies, and when should I expect them to shed, When should they be fed for the first time?

You can sex them right out of the egg if you are popping them. You can probably probe them at that size too......I have never probed them out of the egg but I do probe snake before they are shipped out. So I have probed snakes that are about two months old.

They will shed about a week to ten days after hatching.

They will probably start feeding a week or two after that.....so take longer.

Interesting username, that was my slogan "for the best balls around" years ago, I have since change it to "Evolve Some Balls" , to many people were taking the old phrase the wrong way , lol , perhaps that wasn't a bad thing looking back at it now!!! Anthony McCain-McCain's Reptiles.
