Boy or Girl

Hello,

I recently got my king snake, and did not get him/her sexed. I truly have no reason to get him/her probed at the moment, so I will leave it up to everyone here and your best (logical) guess! Of course you get a picture of a noodle butt to look at. Thanks, good luck!

Re: Boy or Girl

The picture got a little blurry here and there but I think I counted around 122 subcaudal scales. With that low of a scale count, and a relatively quick taper after the vent (without much area for the hemipenes to be stored), I'd say possibly female. A straight-on shot at the vent might get a better indication of the amount of taper after the vent, though.
