So often there are members starting threads
asking the site the identify of the sex of there T.And because sexing of ts is a experience in the hobby ordeal.

Instead of starting a new thread everytime.
Lets make this thread used for the members to post pic of there Ts exo skeloton and the site and the more experienced members could help out on sex the Ts for them

=Dave= :)

My Advice is mostly from my personal experience, but everyone is
allowed to give there own opinion.

Not a very good quality picture :(

But I will try, judging by the oval shaped epigastric furrow the best guess I can make is that it's female.

Can you perhaps give us a closer ventral shot of the abdomen, book lungs and epigastric furrow? With a better picture we might have a chance at sexing it correctly for you :)

Ask the spider to switch off it's headlamp...

There is no way anybody can sex a spider ventrally and be 100% sure. It takes a very practised eye, and then it still remains a guess at best...

Most people are like clouds. The sun comes out when they f*ck off...

Hi all,
This is a pic of my 4cm B. boehmei (Mexican fireleg)... it was bought along with Hercules' one in a joint deal - they are both from the same batch of slings but mine is substantially bigger than his, this rapid growth would make me think that it's a male but I feed it often so that might be the reason too. I know the T is very small but was wondering if anyone would care to hazzard a guess.
