The first looks like a female but I'm not 100% sure. The second, though, is most definitely a male.

Wow - seems pretty one side this time.

I was wondering if the tort was too small to tell for sure yet. But I've been thinking \ hoping it was female.

The bigger one is 100% male. I just wanted to see what everyone thought as that would give more credibility to their assessment of the other :)

My 3rd still isn't here yet. I'm getting another from the rescue I'm involved with. Don't know a lot about it yet. May be too small to bother with sexing yet. Was hoping to have it already, but having trouble getting it so far...
