She is a beautiful little girl. I have no clue looking at the tail,the best and most reliable way of sexing a snake is by popping or probing depending on the snakes age. |

I'm sure Morgana won't mind being calles she too much even if she is a he. Unless of course you intend to breed her in the future? I know what you mean though,theres a big difference in the tapering of Loki and Falcors tails. I know Falcors a male and I suspect Loki may be female but I really haven't a clue ( still refer to Loki as he lol). |

I wouldn't worry about it then if you're not planning on breeding. Morgana suits her I think. They are a real pleasure to own aren't they,make you feel so priveleged. Aww thanks. I'd definitely recommend a pewter. Fell in love at first sight when I saw them on the Lexcorn website. |

I have noticed a difference in my males and females but it's when the tail is pulled straight (obviously not in a way that would hurt the snake) and you are looking at the underneath, there is a difference in the way the tail taipers.
I will try and get a pic up later of the male and female next to each other so you can see what I mean. |

Ok, sorry for the really bad pics but here is what I have noticed with my snakes.
Male, the tail stays wide after the vent,then starts to taiper further down.
Female, the tail Taipers straight after vent.
