It was purchased as a supposed confirmed female by molt, and I’d say it’s about 26 or 27 months old now (I bought it March 2021). so I’m holding out hope since it hasn’t matured yet this should be the tell all molt I guess considering its age now

One thing to remember if the moult gets trashed, P mets do not have hooks when they mature. They will however have the red and hard emboli on the end of the palps. So that will be another "tell" if a mature male.

Thank you! I actually had no idea they don’t have hooks until recently so I’ll keep an eye out for the emboli after it molts. I’ll be sad to sell it for breeding if it becomes a MM but happy to see it complete its lifecycle.
