Sorry, no Pics online.
Bus sexing is easy. Preanal pores are much more pronounced in males and Males have two enlarged tubercles at each side of the tail base, which are much smaller in females.
Also males grow significantly bigger and have broader heads.
Most females stay silent, even if grabbed. Most males snarl in defense and of course call loudly once feeling at home.

Hope that helps

P.S.: Make sure not to mix up smihtii and siamensis (only smithii has the dark y on the head.
