Answer 1

The vets office. You may have to call first due to the fact that some vets wont handle snakes. If they dont, you may be able to find a local pet store probing.

Answer 2

I would bring him to a reptile only pet shop. Another way to tell is that, some species have different length tails, (below there anal scale). Males have long tails, while females have shorter somewhat stubby tails. Also if you get your snake probed, watch carefully and learn. Also, how old and big are the snakes? It's usually alot easier on bigger specimens. Good luck and be careful if you try to s*x the snake yourself.
