I think the one on the left of the pics on the towel is a yellow belly slider  also unless they were specifically incubated to be male or females you can't tell until they get older  My 2 1/2" YBS is just staarting to show signs of being a male They will probably start eating the gravel as they get bigger too so you might wan't to get rid of that as it can make them very ill.
Other than that they're really cute

Im absaloutly shocked, I cant believe iv got a RES and aYBS. Whats the difference between them apart from one has a red ear?
Would you recommend sand for their tank then?

you can tell by the yellow mark on the side of the yellow bellys head I would recommend just leaving the bottom bear, it makes it much easier to clean as they get bigger I think the YBS may stay slightly smaller and possibly be slightly mellower than the red ear (depending on individual personality) I've no experience of red ears and I've never seen a baby red ear in the UK!
