Lainee;

Welcome. You won't be able to tell if they are male or female until they are 4". Males have longer claws and tails. This site will be very useful. Read the main site as well as all the stickies in the forum, it will teach you everything you need to know about the basics of care.

Welcome Lainee. You'll also find lots of information about finding out the sex of your turtles. Just use the search feature.
