Hi Manolo and welcome to the Forum!

We all would appreciate it if you would post in English, as this is an English speaking Forum.

My guess on the sexes would be male, ?, ?, and female

Looks like 3 males and a female to me

Looks like only the first one is really showing signs of some male sex characteristics. The anals are looking male and it may be developing concavity to the plastron as there is more wear showing on the sides of the plastron with none in the center. The supracaudal seems to be curving inward. The tail is not very large yet for a male. So really a bit early to be sure.

The other 3 look too small/young and probably have not developed sexual characteristics yet. When too young/small to sex - they all look female.

When fully adult it become obvious! In males, the rear edge of the anals thicken noticeably and spread outward, the plastron really develops a big deep concavity, the supracaudal will curve inward-protecting the tail from the ground during mating, and the tail becomes quite large and long.

Hello everyone,
Indeed I think I will be understood by more people if I write in English...
I wanted to know your opinion on the sex of my turtles (10 years old)
For information I am from the island of Reunion island.
Thanks

Hello,
Thank you for your response.
They are the same age (10 years) and have been fed the same food.

Personally it looks like; male, male, male, female.

That’s just me, it’s hard to tell for certain in the photo

My novice opinion is three males and one female(the smaller far right in the photo).

 

[Manolo]

Mon avis de novice est de trois mâles et une femelle (la plus petite à l'extrême droite sur la photo).

Thanks
