Default Do I Have A Male & Female?

I recently adopted a pair of sulcata's. They are 3 years old and are 14 inches and 12 inches long.

Below is a picture of their plastrons.
I am 100% sure the one on the left is male. He has an indented plastrons and big long tail.

I am certain the one on the right is female. She has a flat plastron and much smaller tail.

I would like to hear your opinions on their sex. Thank you.

Male on left, female on right.


Male soaking and female chowing down. Unfortunate pyramiding.
