I definitely see small pores in the first and third pictures. Second one is a bit more difficult to tell. No bulges tho. Is there a chance they could have been incubated at really high temperatures and be "hot" females? Are you keeping them together? Do they get along?

Thanks for getting back to me everyone,
ok so the first pic the 5 year old weighs 58grams,
the 2nd and 3rd pic they weigh 45grams each,
i was told that one of the 45 gram gecko's was a male, BUT i dont think so, i found it hard to even see the V shape you are suppose to look for, i can hardly see it in the photo its not as distinct as ive seen others.. also, there arent any buldges! :( but the V shape gave me SOME hope it was male..
the 2 45 gram geckos live in the same enclosure, ive had them all together once before when i had no extra room and no issue, so that rules on me having 2 males..

IME, if you have a male the bulges are quite obvious. Usually just looking at a leo from the side you can see bulges on the males.

All look female . Females have pores too just not nearly as defined as males . At the ages and weight you said you would be looking for bulges and pores that would be easily visable.
