The picture is really bad :( I can barely make it out. The overall darkness of the photo might be making me say this, but I believe it is a male also. Here's a good site to use to determine visual sexual dimorphism of the P. Ornata. Personally, I would look on it's ventral side next time it is on the side of its enclosure. Either way is fine, I just like to know as early as possible.

Here's a link to the site that I was referring to: http://www.arachnoboards.com/ab/showthread.php?60259-Poecilotheria-ornata-(gynandromoph)
