I think the second is possibly a male, the rest females.

Females tend to have a more pointed head shape.

Yap!
I also think that second image is a male, but he is the smallest one of the three.
I am still not 100% sure, but it means a lot if you guys has confirmed my guess.
Thanx a lot, will try to take more pics, this ones are old..
regards
