P Rufilata 1.5 in

P Rufilata 1.5 in. I hope it’s possible at this size. If not, I’ll try again when it gets bigger :)

Arachnophoric
FAR too small to sex via molt, especially without a microscope. Poecilotheria have very small spermathecae and at this size anything forming would be nearly transparent. I could only just sex my girl at twice this size, and that was using a x50 magnification.

It might just be big enough that a ventral pic could help us get an idea of the possible sex, though.
