Wondering if this would be a good idea.
Let's have a thread to post photos of known sexed snakes. You can only post a tail photo or other pertinent photos, if you know for a fact that it is the sex they are representing. I myself need help in identification of the sexes(the snakes only, haha) Having photos to compare and learn from would help all of us.
Just an idea. Lets talk about it.

Re: Sexing help
Great idea. I would also say there should be no 'chit-chat posts' between photos... just known-sex pictures with ID and sex. Yeah, great idea, Steve.

Re: Sexing help
I hear you, Shanley, but sometimes the articles get neglected. Let Steve start it as a thread and we'll see about moving it to 'articles' later.

Re: Sexing help
Let's just make sure we only post known-sex snakes in the thread... absolutely no guessing! Also, let's make sure the pictures show something indicative of sex... ie, tail length/base mass etc. Let's make a useable and helpful thread.... and let's not chat on it!
