A saddle would show as a green lumpy mass within the body of the shrimp. The females are also larger. Your ghost shrimp is infected with a thread worm btw. See that white line coiled up inside him? Eventually that worm is going to burst out of him.

Not 100% sure on the sex of that shrimp but it is a carnivore indicated by the pincers. It will eat fish if you have any in the same tank.

Sorry to tell you, but that ghost shrimp has a horsehair worm, a parasite that is basically untreatable, will spread, and will almost certainly kill the shrimp.
Unfortunately common in shrimp bought from Petco. I carefully observe any ghost shrimp I get from there, and look at all of the shrimp they have for any signs of them. Sometimes the store’s stock seems fine, other times literally half the shrimp have horsehair worms and it is unsafe to buy any of the shrimp.

Tickle his tail and call him ‘Shrimp-Daddy’.

I see one other comment mention it, but this shrimp has been parasitized by a horsehair worm. When it breaks free, the shrimp will not make it. I have put infected shrimp in containers with little water and watched the worm exit the body of the shrimp, very interesting stuff.

Ah! This reminds me a while back, I decided to ask google “how to sex young kribensis” and got this official warning with a phone number to report. (It’s in Portuguese but you get the idea!)
