I don't think the little guy/girl is big enough to tell yet. Does someone have super huge hands, or is the turtle still under 4 inches? If it's the super huge hands, I agree, but if it's under 4 inches, you get to wait a little while to see if you have a boy or a girl. :)

inched FYI not years lol. I have had "Her" for about 2-3 months. I have my hands really close to the webcam. Its fun to put the webcam on the floor and put a towel on the floor and let the RES run wild. I only have done it once and it is a great moment to get pictures of them I think

The color looks OK from the pics, but the shell is a bit bumpy. She might be getting fed a bit too much... What is she getting and how much?
