Hi, was just wondering about the pro's and cons of getting your corn sexed. When i bought Tallula Belle they had always called her a girl but didn't know. I would like to find out but heard it was quite invasive and wouldn't know where to go anyway. What do you guys think? |

Smoochy unless you plan to breed then its probably not worth you getting your snake sexed depending on its ages it can be probed or popped probing doesnt seem to bother them it only takes seconds to do and some reptile shops will do it for you for free (or a small fee) just dont allow anyone inexperianced near your snake with a probe! |

I have always called my snake him even though I haven't had it sexed. Personally I don't think I need to have my snaked probed/popped because I'll like the snake all the same. |

I've got one unsexed snake and as I have no intentions of breeding *him* I won't be getting him sexed. I don't see the point in stressing him out for curiosity's sake. It all depends on your future plans really. |
