Looking good!

Fingers crossed I'll have a few clutches of eggs next spring.

i've been told that i may have to wait around 2 years to find out verdi's gender as probing is not advisable Sad

, that leaves me in a kinda dilema, i dont want to get rid of verdi,but it would mean that i would be taking a chance on the gender of any other that i buy matching verdi's,even if i knew it's gender for certain Shocked

that is going to be REAL frustrating,as i wanted to get another in 2008. Sad

Hi kenny i wouldnt be too worried about having him/her sexed when over a year in age. The male ive just had probed is roughly 14 months old but is BIG and ROBUST for his age (he's a good eater) and probed without any hassle.
I was convinced he was gonna turn out to be a girl. Embarassed

Kenny - Verdi is well probe-able now as long as you find someone experienced near you. You don't need to wait 2 years. Whatever the sex is, if you're patient, a good example of the opposite will turn up,

2 super looking snakes nick, i think if i were forced to choose ,it would be the richard trant one, but it would be a difficult choice. the first just gets it for me however,as the clour is really quite unusual Smile
