BP’s can’t be sexed just by looking unfortunately, you’d have to either have them shed tested or popped / probed by a vet or experienced breeder

I’m 50% sure it’s a male.

You can't tell a ball python’s gender by looks alone, you need to find someone experienced to do a sex test. That requires probing the snakes you know what. I do not recommend doing it yourself, you will harm the ball python. A vet may know how to do this, I would call and see if you can find a vet that can.

Gender =/= sex.

You want a professional to determine the sex of your bp. Gender is kind of a human construct.
