Male anatomy ~ for those interested.

LOL. Well I was already taking pics of everyone that was breeding, so I had the camera ready. This guy didn't suck back right away and I had to rinse substrate off him. Even after his "bath" he was still hanging out so I decided to snap a pic. :)
 
Dangit... why do I always open these threads? I should know better by now. It looks like someone mutated a koosh ball.

I must say, your photography skills are excellent. :awcrap:
 
Katia - Different species have different shapes & textures.

Great photo Carol!! I think it looks like an abstract flower :)
 
hahaha i get that but... is that a hemipeni(s?) of a corn? if so why does it look all flowery... i've only popped 1 male cornsnake, and it looked NOTHING like that!
 
you are right, it was definitely a hatchling. wow, they change so much! haha. i was seriously BOGGLED out of my mind when i saw this, cause like i said, looks NOTHING like a hatchlings "bits"

Could someone, like... draw us a diagram or something?

By the way, this brings up the great mental image of little 5th grade cornsnakes sitting in class, and learning about sex ed:
Teacher - "Now, this is the cloaca."
Students -"*snicker snicker* She said cloaca!!!"

:roflmao:
 
Well I'm terrible at photoshop/paint/ect. but the smooth part is the base, and the bumps/spines get larger as you get to the tip of the head. The white stuff is leftover residue from his breeding activities. :)
