I bought a pair of hognoses as tiny hatchlings as a pet project, the one we were told was the female has grown much faster and larger than the male but the tail just says male to me, i love the snake anyway even if i have two males, have a probe kit on the way, but figured i would get some opinions, could she be what ive heard termed “long tailed female”? What do you think?..Male? Female?
If you’re familiar and confident with probing, I’d suggest that before springing for another one. Unless you just need a reason to get another one? Because… you never need a reason to get another hognose
I had a few hognoses sold to me as female, but they looked like this
Oh wow, I definitely wouldn’t think that was a female’s tail. Good thing probes were invented, just probed an 8-year bci that was thought to be a female all those years.
