They are all YBS, Trachemys scripta scripta

You can tell sexes if they are about 4 inches SCL. Males will get longer and fatter tails then females. Males will also get long nails on their front legs, which they use to fan the females with before mating. Your first 2 look to be females, not sure on the third.
