Question Male?? Female?? Can't figure it out!!

I know it seems like a simple task especially when they are over a year old. But Every time I think I have females, a site or someone says no I think its a male. So PLEASE PLEASE could someone help me out here.. My leopard and Carrot tail I'm ALMOST POSITIVE is girls, they have no bumps at the end of their tails, its nice smooth from body right down the tail. My other Little Leopard is to tiny for me to tell. and my blizzard well I think might be a male.. looks a little different. but how old do they really have to be to tell what sex they truly are? And when do they start to show signs of breeding? or should say WHAT ARE the signs of breeding lol

The only way we can tell for sure is if you get a clear photo of the underside, near the vent of your geckos. Put them in a clear plastic cup or tupperware and try to get a good picture. We'll be able to tell when we see it.

First: If full grown I'd say Female.
Second: Too young to tell I'd say. Plus the picture is a bit blurry.....
Third: Full grown right? If so I'd say Female as well.
The pictures aren't the best....
Here's a link to how to sex them:
Sexing Leopard Geckos
As you can see, Males have very distinct pores!

nope they all three same age, just that middle one is much tinyier then others.. I thought I ended up with all females. Dang how can I get a male and KNOW for sure I'm getting a male? All the pet stores around here sell them so young you can't tell really.

Funny story: My first leo Yoshi, when we first brought him home we called him a "he." Fast forward a few months I looked underneath and saw no signs he was a "he" so he became a "she." Fast forward 1 year..... I never really checked on wether or not he indeed was still a "she" but got curious and took another hard look and Yoshi is now the "he" that he was since the beginning!
There really is no guarantee with babies and juvies. You just have to wait and see. About how old are they? You never know... If they're still under 7-8 months they could surprise you!
