Hey guys.

Thank you james.
A bit embarassing...

No need to be embarrassed! Just remember 'Mr & Mrs'.....male first, then remale.

what is this number thing? can i use this to find the sex of my snakes?

drache · 10-21-2007, 03:53 PM

it's something to use, if you already know the sex of your snakes
like 1.3.4
would mean 1 male, 3 females, and 4 unsexed
i'ts an abbreviation of sorts

Its a kind of declaration for any animals sex
used also in sciencifical studies and zoos.
When your collection becomes bigger its easier to say:
"I´ve got 1,2 ´parietalis, 3,1,2 ´atratus...."
If genus is clear you don´t need to name specy and subspecy,
because subspecy names are unique and clear to all insiders

I never knew that! Well I knew people use it to abreviate but I never knew which was male and which was female!
Thanks!
See GGarter? You don't have to be embarrassed! Other people are learning too!
On the other hand, I'm only 9 years old.
