Can anyone tell by this picture if this baby is a male or female?

Here is another at a slight angle.
By the way does anyone also know how to post multiple photos under 1 message using photobucket or some other source?

It is really impossible to tell at this age. Right now it
appears to be a female but as it grows this may change.

Thank you for the help
Under the "OR Select Images from Photo Gallery:" box you can hold down "Ctrl" and click multiple photos. Or if you want to use Photobucket, click the box next to each pic that you want to use, click on "Generate HTML and IMG code" and then select the text under "IMG clickable thumbnails for message boards - recommended" and paste it in your message.
Hope this helps!

I'm guessing a female too but I have heard things can change as they mature. Males have longer front claws, fat longer tails, a curve/notched shell (where the tail comes out)
at the bottom part of the shell (the females is straight across)
and the "cloaca" opening is located further down the tail of the male and it is closer to the body in the female.
