In this video we discuss how to identify male and female boas using the palpating method. A more educational-ish video but useful in understanding a snakes anatomy and reproductive organs.
"The hemipenes are a pair of intermittent organs found only in the snakes and lizards. They are located in a pocket found at the base of the tail behind the cloaca. To ensure sp*rm transport, the hemipenes is grooved and the tip is rough or spinous. The hemipenes are returned into the body by a process called invagination where they are turned outside in by retractor muscles. The opposite of this would be during er*ction when they are turned inside out, a process called evagination, which forces the hemipenes through the cloaca. Only one hemipen*s is inserted and used during copulation" (Kardong 2002).
