Re: My Baby!!!

You cannot sex a GTP younger than a year old..their tail vertebrae are just too delicate. You run the risk of permanently kinking and/or paralyzing the tail. My old male Archimedes has a pretty severe tail kink. He'll breed anything that moves, but I imagine someone along the line tried to probe him or pop him too young.

Re: My Baby!!!

YEah - we were told the same willow - ours hasnt been probed for sexing - the guys in the shop are purely going on the coloring of the tail?? He has kept and bred GTP for donkeys years and says that the tail colouring is different between young males and females.

Oh.....LMAO!! That is too much. Fortunately, he hasn't gotten any ideas with me, but I do have a flying snake that sticks his junk out every time I have to move him to clean his cage. I just look at him and say, "Dude, put those away. I do not need to see that." lol
