Question

How can you tell if a king snake is a male or female?

Answer 1

I wouldn't trust a vet to pop or probe a snake, let alone trust a pet-store clerk. Would you trust one to shove a probe up YOU?

Look at the snake from underneath. Find the vent, at the base of the tail. If there is a gradual taper from the body through the tail, you have either a female or an immature male. If there is a spot with an abrupt taper not far behind the vent, you have a mature male.

Answer 2

Best to have a herp vet probe it for you.
