At 6 months old it is fairly easy. The males will have large femoral pores inside their hind legs and the females will be very small. It's hard to tell just by looking--I've seen plenty of females that were large and colorful and you'd swear they were males! Heres good pix of adults:

Yep. If the flap infront of there jaw is quite large, it's a male. Females are smaller.
