determining sex by tail shape

Could I get some help here? I'm a new at kingsnake and at posting...Anyway my son and I have this 09 corn that we bought as a female...but now I'm having my doubts. Here's a photo. She supposedly has some Emory rat snake in her if that matters. Thanks for any help. She's a beautiful orange yellow and white pattern.

The taper looks right for a female.

That definitely looks to be a female!..

Thanks so much for your help. I was hoping she was a girl!

You're welcome!

That amelanistic emoryi x corn cross is known in the hobby as a "creamsicle" corn just in case you might not have been aware of it.
