Additional photos of this would definitely be welcomed! Very neat to see, certainly not an everyday type of occurrence!

heres some pics from the top, idk why my qualitys so bad but it looks like she only has the split colors on the bottom. It even looks like the bottom of her feet are different colors on each side.

Really cool to see!! Would be awesome to confirm - is there any difference from the inside of the molt? Like would they have the spemathecae or not? Would love to see how it looks if ever you could get look at an intact molt! Will need to research more on this as I have too many questions now.

Edit: never mind, learned the different with hermaphrodite and gynandromorph but very cool none the less!

i regret looking that up😂
I knew what it was and still has to look it up to see what you did, regret it as well 😂

Still sounds rough paying female price for a two gender t. But interesting too look at for sure !!!👍
Many people pay a premium for that...


I often wonder if such specimens are capable of reproduction? I can only guess it would be harder for the female organs to manage, but the male organs, fertile and able? Maybe the chemicals runnjng through its body leans more male or female and they wouldnt mate? So many questions.
