    Re: Corn Snake M or F?

    I'm pretty good with sexing adult Corns and Rats, and this looks male to me. There's a fairly distinct bulge there right below the cloaca, then the tail tapers off. If you really want to be sure, especially given that photos aren't always an accurate way to sex a snake, have it probed, but it certainly looks male from this angle.

    Re: Corn Snake M or F?

    I have both male and female corn snakes of various ages and would say its impossible to tell the difference visually you will have to have it probed if you cant do it yourself, some reptile shops will do it free if you phone in advance. I would also say that that is too big for that age, I would guess maybe 4 or 5 years a 3 year old is usually 3 foot.

    It would make life easier if you could tell like you can on a garter as we are going to breed ours we had to have them probed but learned how to do it ourselves.

    if you want a laugh though I was in a rep shop looking for a male garter, and the shop had one garter in I had a look and said female the guy in the shop didnt think that was an accurate way of doing it so probed and found it was female. Oh well garters are rare here in the uk.
