hehehe!! Thought that would u here...i was wondering if there is any other way of knowing a snakes sex other than probing? Thanks for the help..

You can pop them, but I strongly suggest you not do it unless you know what you are doing. Popping is when you bend the tail back slightly, roll your thumb towards the tail to expose what is in the cloaca. If there are red bumps, it is a male. If not, it is a female. Also, if you do it wrong, you will think it is female. Anyway, make sure someone shows you how to do it before you attempt anything, as it can irreprerably harm your snake if you do it wrong.

Have fun.

The idea is to invert them by applying pressure in the opposite direction. That is, towards the head.
