Most breeders hold onto males, the predominant sex available are females. When they are so young it's difficult to really be sure but I think your chances are good.

Not accurately (at least not 100%)

Most lable them as pictus. That is all I have saw, that is how everyone ive talked to them refere to them. The whole stripe part inst in the name... Its just P. pictus. There are several morphs, stripe, 2 stripe, the common banded, xan, reds, and some are saying hypo and snows.

For the sex, the breeder I know she has mostly males for sale, i mean like cheap Xans for 20 at one time. Normals 10. Crazy though.

I hate to burst everyone's bubble, but Gardener's gecko photo looks more like a Stenodactylus species (dune geckos), not a pictus gecko. The most common one I'm familiar with is Petri's dune gecko, Stenodactylus petrii, better known as just "Petri's gecko" or "dune gecko". Occasionally they're known as "frog-eyed geckos" or "frog-eyed dune geckos", but these names are less common and should be avoided because true frog-eyed geckos are genus Teratoscincus. Dune geckos are desert species and will not thrive under pictus gecko living conditions. Aside from the physical resemblance to a dune gecko, I think this makes more sense because pictus geckos are common enough that they shouldn't be confused for something else. Dune geckos are less often seen and like leopard geckos they are an arid species. I can see how the species would be confused though. That darker stripe on the side is the first thing that tipped me off.

Examples of Stenodactylus:

Edit:
Apparently they're also occasionally known as sand geckos or dwarf sand geckos, which are also improper common names, because "sand gecko" is already the name of another species I believe.
