when they are young its very hard to tell and even sometimes as adults it can be a little difficult so more or less the answer to your question is yes

if its 1 year old you should have no problem telling the sex.

how are you looking for it?

It can be a little tricky without exposing the vent.  With babies some show sooner than others.  There are some males that show their "maleness" late.  I was just reading a post from a breeder claiming to notice a female "went male" on him during the brumation cycle, lol.  It can happen. Exposing the vent is the best way but should be done with extreme caution.
