I have 2 wild caught individuals that arrived in the same time, from the same company. Both have been fed equally (exactly). Both eat well. Both arrived with abdomens slightly smaller than the cephalothorax. Both are about 3-4" sub-adults or small adults. The one with the double sized abdomen (now) is very calm while the one with the smaller abdomen is skittish. My assumption is the one with the smaller abdomen may be suspect male and the very very plump one a suspect female although both have the same size exoskeletal structure.
The big ?... Has anyone ever received a gravid wild caught A. chalcodes? Why would one's abdomen get SO BIG vs. the other, when each one was fed the same amount of food? Same times? Same schedule? Same quantity? Thanks!
