Caribena Versicolor

Male or female?
Hey there. Can't tell from this - first of all, you have it laid out so the exterior of the exuvia is showing, and we need to see the inside. Second, when they're that small, it'll likely require more magnification than you can achieve with a phone or even a decent digital camera to see the spermathecae. Doesn't mean it can't be done, but you'll need to get it under a microscope and take some pics (a decent pocket microscope can be found on Amazon for $25 that does 60X-120X magnification). See this example of a molt from one of my slings that is a bit smaller than yours by my guess:

Read through this thread for tips on prepping a molt to be sexed:
 
Yeah I have a molt about the same size and was coming to these pages to try and figure out if I could determine by how the molt looks. Seems I might have to take the molt into the shop I bought it for them to look.
