Serpent Alchemy

All animals are sexed to the best of our abilities using industry-standard techniques like popping, probing, and visual inspection where needed. We use the most accurate method available for each animal. We guarantee the sex for 30 days after you have received the animal and will offer a return, replacement, or 50% refund for improperly sexed animals with proof of improper sex. Proof will need to be verifiable vet documentation, photographic, or video evidence of the animal being properly sexed and showing the wrong gender. For ball pythons, a male that pops a female should be probed to verify.
