I’m pretty positive this feisty little dude is a dude, I still just wanted to post a reference picture for people for D. Pentaloris vents. I’d say they’re about 4” DLS
Update: This fella molted last night and is in fact a male!
Agree with male on this one. I've got a D. pentaloris sling that's barely pushing 1/2" DLS and it is easily my most aggressive hunter. They're a fun little species.

I've had this one since it was less than 1/4", and at that small size it didn't web much, mostly just dug in and stayed buried. As it's gotten bigger it's started laying much more webbing - it has also used the substrate to make a dirt curtain in front of it's hide, which I think is awesome. If I drop a cricket in and it climbs on the front of that curtain, the little psycho will hurl itself into it and grab the cricket from the backside, dirt, webbing and all! I'll try to get a pic of the enclosure and post it.
