G.pulchripes

Im wondering if shes big enough to tell if shes a she or he yet :-) ursula might be a petey after all but im not sure.
This pic was taken awhile ago im gonna see if i can get a recent pic. She just molted and her abdomen looks little compared to rest of her. Not sure on legspan sorry
 
@Shelbizo That dark patch above the vent(Epiandrous fusillae) indicates male, Only some sp.'s of mm will develop tibial hooks *G. pulchripes being one of those sp's that do* all T's will develop bulbous palps once the male has its last ultimate molt, after which he will spend its limited lifespan finding a female. You can slow down its growth by feeding less freq. and keeping him slightly cooler.
 
@BobBarley thank you :) this one is my first of 4 that seems to be male. Does the abdomen size have alot to do with it? Ill post a pic of my curly's underside of her molt. Im pretty sure she is female.
