Do you think that it was the temperature at which you incubated them that made the litter so female heavy, and are you pleased with the odds ?

Blimey, unreal !

What method do you use to sex the babies?

Sometimes the sex ratio of babies drives you mad,

Great litter tho, and very good size.

always worth double checking, I get to sex allot of babies from corn snakes to retic, anacondas, monitors...everything reptile and amphibian...

I usually pop, then probe later with snakes.

Sometimes if they haven't had their first slough yet the probe can feel like its a female (a bit tight),

Good luck, and post some more photos of the hypos !! (please...lol)
