Avicularia avicularia 3.25" Female
I had actually sexed her from her last moult in June, but it wasn't very clear. I thought I would post this one for people looking for comparisons since it is far more obvious this time.
 
Have you tried comparing the spermatheca to known avic species to see if it matches one? The avics I've seen tend to be long, squiggly things and I can't see from this picture.
 
@Kenna T I considered doing that at some point, she really is a bit too small still, but I am not going to try too hard. I will keep checking on her moults to see if I can get a really good shot, and I will compare it if I do get one in perfect condition, but I am not going to try too hard.
I love her to death and have no intentions of breeding her, so it doesn't matter that much to me if I ever know for sure.
