I posted a picture yesterday but was asked for a closer picture. I apologize for the flash glare and webbing but I think I see a spermatheca. Opinions?
Best way to get a clear photo is take it out of the enclosure onto something clear so you can get the lighting and camera focus perfect. I used the lid of my critter keeper's clear doorflap for my most recent upload. If I had to guess from this I'd say female, but for anyone to tell you for certain from a ventral picture you need to see very well what you're looking at. We're talking spider vaginas here. Very tiny and fine details
Once she molts (we are in our 3rd week of premolt) I will definitely get a better picture, especially if she tears apart her molt again as usual lol. I know this isn't the best photo, but this picture has a clearer image of what I am thinking could be a spermatheca.
