When a burm is very young, very very young, you can "pop" them and find out it they are male or female. By pressing near their vents and if it's a male, you'd see to penis'. But you're burm isn't young enough for that.

So the only way to tell 100% for sure is by probing. People proclaim that the size of their spurs and their tails will determine sex, but it is not *always* the case. So the best and only sure-fire way is probing.
