Here's a capture of my personal favorite.
Cyriopagopus schioedtei (any pronunciation tips?)
She's a fresh molt, so I'm showing her off.

I have heard in the past that you can tell the sex of this species fairly early on by the color. I can not remember, however, how to do this--if I am even remembering correctly in the first place. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

The males tend to be very greenish like flourecent or something.

I'm not sure if you can tell that from an early age if its a male or a femme, because I never kept one before.

Great pics John! she's beautiful!

Any ways have a nice day

Very nice! You always seem to have great pics. Here's my little sling, I haven't seen much of it since it's molt on august 6th. Actually, I've seen it out a lot, it's just not out long enough for a photo session! :}

In females, the legs tend to become dark quite early on - as shown in John's picture.
In males the legs tend to stay an overall gold/brown before turning into what looks like a lime green Huntsman at the ultimate moult.

As for pronounciation, I think "shy-oh-tay" sounds about right?
Total guess so don't shoot me for it ;)

Oh and here's my large spiderling.
