fk... I'm no expert... the one showing the short tail could be a female. The ones with the elongated carapace... my guess would be male. I seem to remember that they are very difficult to sex until they are adult.

This is a male, i have one at 11oog and one at 2kg, both have this huge defined tail, hard to believe that from 600g to 1100g they could change so much. But time will tell.
