I am not planning on breeding but would like to know the sex of fluffy, I have always refered to him as a male (don't know why)
Does probing hurt if taken to a reptile specialist, the place where my dad got his royal has said that I can take fluffy in to be probed tomorrow if I want ... Is it a big deal for the snake?

Unless your breeding there is no point, visually sex it when it gets bigger. I haven't had any of mine probed but Spot leave hermipene impressions in HIS shed, my Boa has no spurs (she), and my Royal is still up for debate. Its not 100% but its good enough for a non breeding animal.

both mine were probed probably at around 9 months old and neither of them were all that bothered by it

I would like to know what sex "he" is ... if it doesn't cause them much bother then I will get it done ... my dad and his fiance have 3 females (all sexed before purchased)

I went to the pet shop looking for another snake and the guy probed the ones i was interested in and my own snake i brought along. The hatchies couldnt care less, but mine wriggled a bit then settled down. I dont think it hurts, i think its just uncomfortable :)
