    The most reliable way to get an answer is to take the turtle toa vet who specializes in reptiles. Failing that, websearching "determine sex turtle" finds a number of suggestions in details of shell shape, tail and cloaca shape, lengthof claws, size, and so on. None of those are 100% reliable but when taken together they may answer your question.

Males tend to have a longer thicker tail than a female only when they are fully grown. Females tend to have shorter nails also. The males have longer nails on their front feet. This is in general of turtles.
