Xenethis immanis 5"

First molt with me, was sold as a female but was only $80 (?!) so I wasnt hopeful. I'm not seeing a flap, but not finding any pictures of accessory organs.

TIA!
I'm leaning female, the other similar sized specimens I could find pictures of don't have any obvious accessory organs that I have found
 
It's been sweat equity if you factor in her brother (I assume). He was even cheaper but came with a punctured abdomen. It's been two months of removing and reapplying cornstarch because it starts to grow white mold after a few days, thanks to his appropriately moistened substrate. He's enjoying the small, frequent consolation crickets but good grief I hope he molts soon.

I'm just glad she made it out okay. I assume they were not cared for all that well being in a 4" cup on dry moss with no water dish (I think that's how his abdomen for perforated), her brothers previous molt was in with him. I know for a fact the prices I paid are not even sling prices because I had JUST bought my first immanis sling a few weeks before. I think this LPS just left them in the shipping container they arrived in, and put them on the shelf. And maybe $169 (I was wrong she was $69) and $139 were the intended wholesale prices? And the breeder forgot the 1?

If it makes you feel better none of the three ever leave their hides. Where's this amazing feeding response people talk about lol. Just legs for days over here.

10/10 will do again
