Harpactira namaquensis

juvenile female on pink flower ;) - It actually looks as if all 3 slings I got from Kezy are turning out female - nice selection, Kezy :)
How did you figure them to be females? Growing one of this species here. Probably first/second generation via Kezy export, ha.
 
@boina Was wonderin if there was some kind of visual difference between the sexes without molt sexing. But it was by molt sexing it seems..?
 
@aphono No, I'm usually sexing ventrally. Over the years I like to think I've gotten pretty good at it, especially when I can see the tarantula in person ;). And no this spcies has no sexual dimorphism.
 
Thanks! Some day I'd like to try learning how to ventrally sex. Getting a box of molts ready to send out for sexing- my first time and pretty excited about that. :)
