Boars(males)are generally larger than females, have smaller nipples, and when sexually mature very obvious scrotal pouches. Gently pressing on the pigs belly, near his genitals will cause the penis to emerge.

Sows(females)will have a Y shaped opening.

Boars will urinate 'forward' or to the front and sows to the back.
