    Sexing live tarantula

    Both my tarantulas (B. boehmei-Mexican Fireleg/A. geniculata- Brazilian white knee) molted last month. I had a brain freeze and didn't keep the molt. I did however get a pic of one upside down. Can it be sexed the same way as a molt? Thanks in advance

    Concerned about the future of our hobby!
