This great animal molted yesterday and I suddenly have something to work on for the contest

So, Male/Female, and could it be mature??

 

[rosehaired1979]

Looks female How big is it? If its 6" + I would say she is mature and ready to go

 

[manville]

female. I dont know about the age though

 

[Maikardaaion]

The abdomen looks knida samll. Is this normal with these spiders?

>>it's not normal for poecs under healthy well fed/hydrated conditions to have such small abdomens but it's not uncommon for T's to have small/shrunken abdomens post molt(molted yesterday stated).Nothing a few crickets and a good drink won't fix. .Matured males of most species will have the smaller/shrunken elongated looking abdomens though.

Or a nice pinky!!


She (((YES!!!))) is about 13cm which is like 5 inches and a little bit.

Genious, could you post a full shot from above the T? I'd like to see the coloration on it's abdomen.

 

[genious_gr]

Stay tuned ;-)

Its def. female and I would try to mate her and see if she will lay a egg sac if shes not mature then she will just eat the male. You can also tell she is female by the dorsal stripe.

You know, I can't just waste a male like that....I don't even have a mature male! I'll wait for the other two ones to molt and I'll then decide....I'm actually afraid I have 3 females!
