Scarlet

The "girls" are a bit dirty because the pics were taken after playing in the backyard before their soak. Scarlet is about 3/4 the size of Babette yet has a lot longer and thinner tail.

Sorry but this is probably a stupid question but I was told that the males shell was concave and there poop shute was wider and the females shell was flat and her poop shute was more narrow. My question is is that accurate and since my baby has a flat bottom I assumed she was a girl. Would her shell change that much as she grows and fool you to thinking its a girl v/s a boy.
