Ok, thanks tons for answering, just measured them again and they are 6cm and weigh 80g and 78g if that makes any difference? They were sold to me as girls, feel a bit gutted now because I wanted them to share a tortoise table together. xxx

At that size it is impossible to say for sure. To me the plastron shows females but that is not for sure. They are way too small to sex via morphology. They can surgically sex them now days but it is relatively expensive... about $150 each here in the states. I believe it is available in the UK also.
