2.5" Grammostola pulchra [molt sexing]

2.5" (roughly) G.pulchra.
Last molt I checked looked female but this one looks male to me..need some experienced eyes! Thanks!
Can't see anything there that suggests female. You may have been looking at male accessory organs in the last moult.
As it grows and develops moults will get a lot easier to sex though.

Thanks! Just making sure I was correct in what I was looking at!
 
Well it looks a bit more like a flap on that one! Possibly it got completely destroyed on the latest moult and that's why it's not evident. Got any good recent ventral shots?
 
Ps just warning you, I'm not even remotely an expert at sexing T's, it's just something I enjoy doing. There are others on here that have many, many years experience over me!
