Anyone near CT good at sexing bloods?

This "female" has not been receptive and when I tried to probe "her" to verify the sex, she appears female BUT, I suck at probing short tails.
Anyone willing to verify the sex for me?
I am in CT.

She doesn't deficate or get defensive when probed so that's a plus.

Not with bloods.
If she sits relatively still for it, I'll give it a whirl, Steve. (Well, I will anyway, but we'll have a better shot at success if she cooperates). As long as you aren't in a hurry, that is. Got a lot going on the next couple weeks - not sure when I can head out that way.

She basically sits there.
She is not head shy or tail shy like some.
Whenever you can get a chance would be great.

UGH!
Found out why this one wouldn't breed.
It's not a female after all.
It's a male!

You had someone probe it?
Or did you think you saw hemipenes? They have scent glands that they can evert that look like hemipenes - they've fooled me a couple times. They're more pink/red compared to the purplish hemipenes.

The breeder contacted me and thinks it might have been a male. That would explain why he was not interested in any other males.
I would still appreciate it if you could swing by just to verify for me though.
If he is a he, there goes my plans (not to mention all the rats he has eaten ).

Sounds like a plan!
