You never heard of a P. metallica before?

They are extremely popular and most who do not own one have it

i dont know to much myself about dorsal sexing,but i have heard it isnt the most accurate way to do it.I will try to get some ventral pics and post them so i can get a better idea on the sex. and thanks for the response

Oh I know it's not 100% but I've picked up some differences in male/female Metallica's dorsal patterns, anyway I'll wait for the pics, btw it's a gorgeous specimen.

 

[Mr. Irminia]

hey everyone ! , Just got this T a couple days ago ... my first P.Metallica w/ ExoTerra Tank !!! I traded her for 2 kingsnakes , go figure lol dont think Ill have that luck again anytime soon. Her last molt was a few weeks ago and was told it was female measures about 4 inches. Its hard to get a pick of her on the glass , she seems to be quite photosensitive... As soon as I get a fresh molt I will post a pic ! thanks for looking , REPTILE EXPO THIS WEEKEND !! Getting a 1.1 , reguardless of if she is a female or male. Will be breeding this species soon and will have some healthy and fair priced slings ! just want to produce some for the hobby ( why not ) lol. Thanks for any comments and taking the time to check her out !
