Well, here's her shed, and I hope you can see well.

:)

Your opinionations?

Do I get her a pink tu tu or a blue one?

I'm going with female but since I am still learning.
Want some other views.

Thanks all!

Hi Nixy,

Your pics are blurred but there looks to be a spermatheca there....this is what you are looking for on a G rosea female. This is an adult female so keep in mind if it is a younger specimen, the spermatheca will not be quite this developed, you can see the noticeable "extension" or "lip" where the arrow is pointing. a male will have nothing but a "crease" in that area.

Take Care, Dean

Yeppers there is a definate "lip" to that area on Slinky's shed.
