How do you sex a snake?

I dont know much about reptiles, thats my fiance's department but him and I are both new to snakes so we're curious how you tell male from female. Right now we have a Dumeril Boa and a Pueblan Milksnake and I'm getting a California Kingsnake so I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to sex them!

Thanks,
Jessica

Best way is to have it probed. I'd recommend you have some one do it for you.

ask a someone with a lot of experience to probe them for you. if you got them from a breeder, that person will probably be able to help you. ask them to teach you how, also.
