Can’t tell for first one but both appear to be female. Do you plan on breeding them? Not sure about communal but I doubt it since these are really aggressive predators after all.

I have read that females definitely cannot be kept together but males and breeding pairs do alright in some cases. To confirm if i sexxed them right i let them meet, about two seconds before they tried to fight. but all good i was blocking them just to see what would happen. I really want to breed them but unfortunately my luck of the draw got me a second girl

I have a spare male if you're interested; I'm trying to breed them too but I haven't really been able to find a female.

Also, can you get a better pic of the first one? I think that might be a male but I can't really tell

Looking at it now, it looks like it might be a male. Did you get them from insectsales.com?

Rainbow mealworms. I order feeders from them and they are great with customer service and communication. Unfortunately I got busy and forgot to get another pic for you. I don’t have more belly pics but I’ll send you what I have of that possible male.

Did you specifically request for a male? Looking closer at the first pic I think it is most likely a male.

I did request male but they said no guarantees as they didn’t routinely sex vinegaroons and weren’t comfortable knowing it. I’m on vacation so when I get home again I’ll get more pics of the pair and see what you think
