It would be impossible for anyone to tell you sex based on what information is offered. Generally speaking, only males leave “home” to seek out a mate.

With that said, I have females that roam their entire enclosure for various reasons. I also have a few tiny slings that always run for the open door. Neither of these examples would allow me to determine m/f. You need to look at a molt under a microscope, spot the tibial hooks, or get lucky with a great pic of the abdomen and a friend with an eye for sexing that way.

There’s a lot to read here but offers great detail regarding sexing your animal.
