Hey guys, as my title, how old do they have to be before u can tell the sex? I read that males have belly buttons and females have it nearer to the anus. thanks guys!

I think you can tell as soon as they are old enough to be picked up. You are right about the belly button. Boys will have one in the middle that looks like a belly button

You can tell the minute they are born BUT they should be left alone to 14 days or so depending on the mother.
