It's nearly impossible to tell with all their tails tucked in and from that distance.

I agree, we need to see side pics and pics with their tails out. ;)

Though if you look at how the shells are in the back near the tail region, that dip down they have, it suggests male to me on at least two of them. My adult male Greek has an identical structure.

I thought that too, but wasn't sure if that was because they were at slightly different angles,
But the first and third do look male.

If they are you will need to separate them, or they will stress the female out and the males will be fighting all the time.

Always have more females than males. :D

Unfortunately I am going to have to purchase them to get better pictures I already have males and don’t want any more but can’t pass up on an opportunity to get more females. I will post better pictures next week.
