M. zebratum question

[Waxen]

My M. zebratum molted out today and much to my surprise it's a
little girl. There is no missing the flap in this bad boy....or should I
say bad girl. My question is does anybody know if a 3" T of
this species would be considered mature? I know they're supposed
to be like a dwarf version of C. fasciatum and it's been over 6
months since she last molted. Am I to assume that she is now
mature?

A 3" M. zebratum is mature. Is there any males available in the US? Do you have a picture of your girl you can post here?

I don't have any pictures of her after the molt but I can take some when I get home from work this afternoon. I will try post some this afternoon.

Beautiful! I REALLY hope mine turns out to be a male, the US needs more of this species! I really like the way she set up her web btw. My zebratum's is much more sloppy. I should try to give mine a really deep substrate like yours.
