I just got this Avicularia metallica from Reptist i think i know what it is, but figured i would share my new addition and see if the "sexing experts" would verify for me ;). I will post more pics of my new additions tommorrow.
Cheers

Sex?

If it is a male it is going to mature next molt, as generaly they mature at a smaller size than that one is right now, I'll bet female on this one, PEACE, B.

Good to know :). I was thinking male at first then the more i looked at it i started to think female. When looking at the pic i posted you have to look really really well otherwise it looks male. When you look at her in person in better lighting it looks female. Ill be happy either way ;). Male = slings, Female = a nice display pet for years to come ;).
Cheers
