Both look too young. Guessing females though. Hard to say for sure.

Second looks possible male but as stated it's too early to be certain.

The tail base and lack of prominent pores suggest that the first one is likely a female. The second one could be a male as it appears that pores are developing or are present. Are they housed together?

Your first one is a female... The second one is definitely a male. Congrats, you have a female and a male.
