Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Sexing Kings
Hello,
I am sure this has been asked a thousand times, however I can't find anything by using the search feature. I am trying to figure out if there is an easy way to sex a Cali King without having to take it to the vet? Are there any photos on the different vent locations? How about Scarlet Kings, are they sexed the same way?
Thanks in advance.
Bob

Probing is the most accurate way. This is easy to do but you should be shown how first. Maybe another keeper in your area can help you out. A probe set is fairly cheap and can be gotten many places like midwest

Probing is best, but maybe this photo can help. You can see the tail start to taper after the 6th subcaudal scale on the male. The female tapers immediately.

Thanks SSSHane & CrotalusCo, I knew there was some type of a different in the tail thing, but I never got a straight answer. Seeing the photo definately helped. I have also added a phone of what "she" would allow me to do, I had just taken her out for a walk in the front yard and she was a bit squirlley after putting her back in her cage.. Now, can you tell if "SHe's" a she? Where can I get this probe set. I'm sure I can probably Google it, but what would I use for a search term?
I have a Scarlet King also that I'd like to check into, but that thing was NOT gona let me keep it upside down for a second, it was impossible. (plus the things are so small as it is, a photo probably wouldn't work anyway.
Thanks for any info on this ya'll can provide and thanks for the photo! Great help! (but I still am a bit unsure)
Regards,
Bob
