Hey Kelly

This would best be answered by a kingsnake breeder. I am not sure myself as there as so many different kinds. Try to track one down at a reptile show or through your local reptile shop.

You can get your snake probed at your reptile vet. They will insert a blunted probe into the cloaca and see how far it goes in. If it is female then it will only go in a few scale. If it is male, then it will go into the cavity where the hemi-penis' are and go much further. Make sure a professional does this for you; if it is done incorrectly it can damage your snake.
