The 1st one, I thought male at first but the anal scutes are growing like female ones. Could that mean something?

I'd say first three male, fourth female and fifth male, although they are all quite small to be certain.

got muddled with your pickys, kept counting 4 instead of 5 but I reckon male, female, male female male, based on size of the butterfly shape - bottom wings round or elongated....but bit small...CB

What are you going on CB? I'm looking at the tail, the anal scutes and the placement of the cloaca. Not really sure I have that much of a clue but it's always nice to see later on how far off the mark I've been.
