Beautiful Snake olivehydra, I've never noticed that bit on the tip of their tails before. Have you got an even closer shot of that?

Cheers, Luke

Hard to guess, but There was a thread a while ago about un-invasive sexing of pythons by the shape of the immediate area after the vent,so i'm thinking male with the slight bulge after it's cloaca.

You did say Guess Olivehydra, so I'll guess. Female. Also because then it will be worth lots more money. Haven;t seen anyone selling sexed yearling females yet!!

LOL, chondro´s are hard to sex even invasive..... You have also to be very carefull sexing them invasive by the risk of dislocation of the tail, it often happens even by ´´normale´´ handeling of hatchies. Last year I bought this Biak male from an other chondrolover and he turned out to be a female. Body size, and feeding behavior can also be a mark to recognise sex.

I'm guessing boy cos its well behaved. It will more than likely be sold as a yearling, male or female.

Good investment mate, don't imagine you've spent $3k on food during the year?
