Pick one and have it probed. If you get it from a breeder they typically already have them probed. If you get it from a specialty/exotics store then someone there should have the ability to probe.

the breeder may also pop it infront of you for proof, so do some research and see what a femal and males sexual organs look like first so your in the know :)

no, probing or popping are the only 2 reliable ways any other is a guessing game.
popping is what you just described.

best thing to do is see your local herp vet or breeder and have them SHOW you how. or you can hurt your snake. Some pet stores that have a good reptile specialist in there can also show you. im lucky as my local mom and pop pet shop specializes in reptiles, is very clean and the guy knows his stuff as he is a breeder too, the guy there is great. showed me how in about 5 min its very easy once you know. even let me try on one of his larger bowa's but it was too strong for me lol
