male to male??

joshnuber Nov 29, 2005 08:25 AM

This is probably already covered somewhere in here...but I have been trying to breed a trio of ball pythons...I had them probed and was told that two were male and one was female...well last night I noticed the two males locked up together...Do males sometimes do this or is it possible that the "professiona" probed him/her wrong?

While it is always a possibility that they were sexed incorrectly, occasionally male to male copulations can occur. It, like with many other species, is an act of establishing dominance.

Is that what your snake told you? Cause that's what my cousin told his dad when his dad caught him on top of our friend RalphTurns out they were just reeeaaaallly gay.

P.S. For any one out there who knows me and my real cousin, this is a joke. My cousin isn't gay... "not that there is anything wrong with that Jerry".

Not everyone is good at sexing, regardless of whether they are a professional. If you see this more than once I'd assume you have two girls!

2 females locking up??? Now that would be odd.

Christy Talbert Nov 29, 2005 10:41 AM

I meant his trio would have two females in it (1.2 instead of the 2.1 he thought he had).

Well why didn't ya say so? I thought you meant female to female is common or something, but how would that work? (I said to myself),Oh well thanks for clearing it up christy lol
