popped my newest "female" royal the over night and to my suprise i saw this
"she" is 800grams, not feeding and very viscious. i popped her with a towel over the head to see if she was male or female, the pink/purple side bits were poking out a bit further, but to take the pic i was alone.
there were no sperm plugs present

hi
Probe her a female will slightly evert her scent glands. One of my females tricked me into thinking she was male (I thought I had seen hemipenes) untill i probed her. My male has given confirmation to my probing.
