How can you determine the gender of a snake, specifically, how to tell if a snake is male or female?

To determine the gender of a snake, you can look at the tail length and thickness, as males typically have longer and thicker tails compared to females. Additionally, probing can be done by inserting a small metal rod into the cloaca to feel for the presence of hemipenes, which are male reproductive organs. Another method is to examine the size and shape of the snake's scales near the tail, as males may have slightly larger scales compared to females.

The best way I know of is to locate the cloaca of the snake. This is like a humans anus. Then take a probe or thin wire and slide it gently into the cloaca, towards the tail. If it goes down into the base of the tail, it is a male snake. If you insert the probe and it stops, its a female.
