Pygmy chameleons ID

I just got a few little pygmys in this afternoon! I snapped some photos immediately after they climbed out and I was wondering if anyone could give me a species ID and gender on them? I've taken a guess but doubt that I am correct!

As you know the pygmies can live in small groups but if you add that new pair of temporalis to your existing enclosure keep your eye on the two males as they can sometimes be territorial. I would keep the pair of brevicaudatus in a separate enclosure as their temperature requirements are slightly different than the temporalis.
