This would need to be carried out professionally...
But what we do seem to have is a perception that females are more moody.......
I must be careful i don,t want to incur the wrath of any female members...... | How many female snakes actually use this site? haha... we shouldn't liken our female humans to female snakes as i am pretty sure there are differences - subtle as some may seem!
Anyhow, My female spotted is an absolute pleasure to have... during the day... But at night, when she wants to go somewhere, do something or just tell you off, she doesn't hold back - although has never bitten.
Male coastal - still too young to tell, but he's just a little boy at the moment and he appears to be the most placid superstar of them all! |

Secondly in my experience sex has nothing to do with attitude. I have never known a particular sex to be more snappy. If you have a big tub of hatchling water pythons for example they will all be snappy-where does that leave you?

I'm mainly posting here to share that I got bitten on my face (left temple) by my 2yo female diamond yesterday. No pics sorry, its a bit hard to photograph your own face whilst holding a snake and cleaning out her cage

1x 3yr old Female Brissy Coastal.... Never Bitten... Nice Snake. Apparently never handled before she came to me a year ago. But has never looked like biting me. |
