Tibial... or not Tibial... Thats the question.

[Projecht13]

so anyone know about what size GBB's will get their tibial spurs if they are male? I recently got an "unsexed" GBB and its about 5 inches now which is about the full size males get i believe. Any ideas on this male/female? Got some ventral shots to to help.

next to my thumb for scale.

dont want to jinx it of course but it looks pretty female to me, and if so $40 bux for one this size was a steal! INPUT PLEASE

super excited, i had a feeling the second i saw it that it def was not the shape of a male GBB. fingers crossed i can get a hold of an intact molt.

Just wait for her to molt in your care. That way you can time breeding accurately, should you go that route. They're notoriously difficult to succeed with though...the females are nasty to the males.

the females are nasty to the males.

cha story of my life haha. yea ive heard tho and im def looking into to breeding them ive got a male thats about 1 molt away from mature.
