I believe you can sex them now, as long as you do it properly.
Looking back on the post now, having only 2 offspring really couldn't prove parthenogenesis - you'll really need to do genetic testing to compare the genetic makeup to the dam. Although a male would completely disprove parthenogenesis immediately.

I'm going to try an sex them tonight. I will be sending out some samples to warren booth to figure out if this really is parthenogenesis. I'll report the sexes of the babies when I check to tonight.

Sexed the babies by palpating them and feeling for hemipenes. Felt nothing. I did not feel comfortable popping them at such a young age. And I believe mom is a Guyana striped rainbow boa. Just like Ben Siegel had for auction a few weeks ago.

After they have their first shed you should pop them to be sure. They'll pop pretty easily at such a young age.
