Sexing Ackies?

Is sexing ackies difficult? When juvies like 3-6 months old. I know sexing any reptile is hard when they are younger but is it impossible? Are hemipenal bulges easy to see? I'm getting a trio yellows in about two months, they hatched about a month ago. I just want to try and get two females and a male. Is there a slight color variation or are males noticeably larger, anything to help?

It's quite difficult. Nearly impossible under 6 months of age. You have a realy good chance of getting a pair when buying a trio.
