Amos chomps down and the balloon bursts revealing pink powder much to the amusement of those watching.
It might have seemed dangerous, but Mr Wright works with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission as a nuisance wildlife trapper.
Amos has been with the family since 2005.
On Twitter, people were both stunned and amused by the gender reveal.
“Only in Florida,” one man tweeted.
Another simply tweeted, “that’s crazy” while another suggested it’s “the most Florida thing” they’ve seen.
