I just recieved 6 adults and 5 sub-adult nymphs (1 molt away from adulthood) and was wondering if there is anyway to sex the adults.

Are those adults or juvi's?

No, look at the last segment on the male, it is much bigger.

You mean the female? I see now. Thanks!

Yeah the picture almost plays tricks with your eyes, I had to take a double look too when I first saw it.
