  1. look at their tails.  a male generally has a bigger (thicker) tale compared to a female whose tail is very skinny.  a male also has longer nails than a female does.  males are almost always smaller than females.  

    looking at their tails and nails should give you a pretty good idea but you probably wont know for sure untill they are adults.  

    hope this helps


  2. look in their genes!!!! hahahaha XD

  3. take them to the vet and she will give you the answer but if you bought them there most likely girls.

  4. if you have multiple turtles of the same species you can compare the shell on the underside nearest the tail.  in most species of turtle, there will be more room for eggs to pass the female shell, and male vents (multipurpose exit hole) will be placed farther towards the tail tip.  these are general rules, may not apply.

  5. its really hard to tell till they mature into adults. so sorry but you'll probably have to wait for a while
