    It's either female, or you're not popping it out far enough. Might be necessary to take him/her to a vet to get probed?

    It's always very hard to tell from a picture not knowing how experienced and whether or not the person his popping the animal correctly.

    If not done correctly a male can look like a female.

    Do you have anyone near you that is experienced and can double check for you?

    an annual exam is always a good idea, whether the snake is new or old they are all going to a vet, both vets i have been to dont charge extra for sexing. 55 bucks for a complete exam is pretty good around here, includes sexing.

    EDIT: i'd rather pay 55 bucks at a vet for an exam and proper sexing than paying several hundreds to fix the damage i could have done just trying to sex my snake at home

    Just Colorado doesnt really have a lot of exotic vets and vets here charge a hundred at the door just to look at them, not my kind of stee-low.

    I would have to say female unless you are doing it wrong. I mail would pop like the antenae of a snail.

    Two noticably long prongs on either side

    Those "horns" you speak of are spurs. Spurs are the remenants of vestigial legs.
    Both sexes have them.

    Male Spurs are larger... I'd say a girl by the color... Males are a deep red and females are more of a pinkish color
