H. sp Colombia lrg. sling one of two
I rehoused this one today. This the only species of T that I have two of. This one is #2. This one is growing faster than its other sack mate. My guess is male thinking larger growth because they mature fast? Just a hypothesis. We will see.
@MrGhostMantis it is in premolt and refusing food. She immediately dug down and built a web and dirt dome in the substrate. I probably won't see it again until it molts.
 
I wouldn't use growth rates as a way to try sexing specimens - on more than one occassion between sac mates, I've had female specimens outgrowing the males, as well as vice versa. Males may mature sooner, but also bare in mind that a lot of species mature a fair bit smaller than their female counterparts as well.

Also, baby got BACK. :mooning:
