Male or female B. Hamorii based on abdomen?

@Drea I had the same thoughts but still waiting for other opinions as well.. Yup, just so happens the critter keeper is the biggest I got. Gonna have to invest in a glass enclosure soon. If only my hamorii wasn't so defensive, I would have an easier time taking better shots outside of its enclosure.

@Drea Good advice and definitely taking it. Yeah, it somewhat feels like they are trying to find a reason to lowball but who knows. What's interesting is how they used the abdomen size as an indicator. Someone who doesn't try to do research would definitely be taken by that since males are always perceived to be smaller. It's sad really.

@kerplunk those were being posted as I was texting/writing. Those are much better shots and more clear. I don’t know man. With the new pictures that are way more clear it looks like I see a very straight line and a box like shape. Also, it looks like there is small thick black hairs above the genital which is only present in males. Can you see if there are think black hairs right above that line with your eyes?

@kerplunk it is sad. The world is sad. Most people are sad. But me, I am cool. Haha

@Drea I really can't tell either sorry. Well if this is the case I may have to wait for it to molt again and hold out on selling it.

Currently uploading a 4k resolution video to youtube as a last resort hopefully you guys will be able to tell. But from what I can see, the patch above the epigastric furrow seems to be raised and not in line with the underside of her abdomen.

Apparently my video did not upload in full 4k due to account limitations but here it is anyway..

Based on the added pictures in the comments, female. My male had screamingly obvious epiandrous fusillae at 3 inches. Yours does not. It may not have the blatant furrow that some females have, but the lack of an obvious dark patch at that size means it should be female. I'll try to get a picture of my male for reference

@PidderPeets Thank you very much man, that's certainly reassuring. I welcome any more info and would like to learn as much as possible!

@Drea Quick update and a lot of help from Pidderpeets, I now understand the patch of hair you were referring to known as epiandrouse fusillae? He told me it was absent from my specimen and very noticeable on his and a lot of focus and examination, I don't see it on mine (especially in the video where I panned around that area to make sure we aren't dealing with lighting issues.

Here is Pidderpeets male hamorii:


And mine again:


For a newbie like me its very hard to see but there definitely is a concentration of darker setae in the middle, shaped like a triangle as you mentioned where the same area on mine is consistently dark. The male also seems to have a narrower space between the first pair of booklungs..

I'm gonna wait for more information, this is very interesting!
