Smile Sexing Adult Corns

If I were to post pics of my Corn Snakes tails can someone give a likely sexing from photos alone? I know this won't be 100% and the sex isn't important. More out of curiosity.

Re: Sexing Adult Corns

If you get some close ups of the vent we would have a better guess.

Re: Sexing Adult Corns

I tried uploading links to pics on Flickr but got some message that said I wasn't allowed. Maybe I haven't made enough posts yet.

Re: Sexing Adult Corns

PhotoGrid_1366575034951.jpgI think I've gridded the correct 2 and I'm thinking both male. The 1st is in blue at the mo which is my poor excuse for the pics.

This is curiosity more than anything. No real interest in breeding them right now.

Re: Sexing Adult Corns

Are corns even sexually dimorphic?

Males do have long tail compared to females but a large female can easily have a longer tail then most males. My guess is just that a guess. But I'm always right

Re: Sexing Adult Corns

You can't tell really from the pics. Can you see visible spurs? on males you can, females have them but are tucked away although you may still be able to see them.

Probing is the best method.
