question

I am wondering if anybody has ever probed a false water about 8-ish scales or so deep and have it turn out to be a female?? I can kind of pop my 6 foot falsie but not real good. I probed it about 7-8 scales on one side and about 8 on the other. The weird thing is that when I cleaned their cages, I didnt close their lids all the way, "he" went out and went into the other males cage and the other male starting trying to push the other snakes head down and dominate the other snake. I have seen thats how they court as a pair as well. I guess, Im asking, is probing guaranteed 100% in falsies like the big boid snakes, like retics, burms, rocks, or is their a percentage that probe deep that can still be a female. When I thought my original male was a female, and I put my hypo guaranteed male in there, they sat on opposite sides the whole time. When these two supposed males got together the one was all over the other and trying to maneuver their tails, like trying to lock up.

Thoughts? The one snake just gets his whole body over the other and tries to pin its head down while the tail is searching for the other snakes almost to lock.

Would a quick video help of when they get together. It doesnt look like aggression to me at all. It looks like all the videos/pics I have seen how the male just tries to dominate and "head pin" the female and basically lay on top of her, thats pretty much what it looks like to me.

couple pics of them and a video





Another quick experiment. As soon as I put him in, he went right for the other and began to pin the head and follow the snake where it tried to go.
