Try paying to have a snake sexed, being told it was a female. Brumating her and putting her to a known male and have nothing happen for a while. Then, bringing her back and paying again to have her sexed, another $10 and being told that she is still a female. Then trying to breed her again, with NO SUCCESS!! Then, for S/G's I bought a probing kit, had a friend come over to show me how to do it, then only to discover that the female I have spent $20 sexing, is in fact a male.

Rich Z...?

What morph is your avatar? It is a good list, think I read it on the Serpentco website. That is definitely what makes breeding any animal something you have to love the animal too, not just being in it for the money.

Sounds about right to me! Especially the "Every planned mating will not take place".

Well, hmm......thats all interesting. I didn't realize it was so hard to sex a snake with probing or popping. When I put my thought to be females in with my thougt to me male corn snake they kinda did the same thing. Well, Diamond and Bindi didn't seem interested in eachother at all. But when I put Bindi and Zoe in together they went cookoo and crazy and especially Zoe who I thougt was female she was like trying to escape and hiding and zipping around in the cage trying to get out. So does that mean I put two males in together? When I put Bindi and Zoe together? And how about Diamond and Bindi? Diamond supposedely female and Bindi male.
