    H.Maculata Male or female?

    Can someone tell me if its male or female? Is it even possible to tell yet?

    I know this is a stretch, but does anyone think they can sex my A. seemanni?

    Yet again, I know this is a big stretch but it never hurts to try. My A. seemanni is 3-4 inches in leg span and has made a burrow to the bottom of its enclosure. I tried getting the best picture possible but it’s still not very clear.

    Brachypelma’s ventral sex

    Hi guys, I’m new in the T world. I got my first Ts a week ago, B. hamorii and B. boehmei, and the breeder told me they are 1 year and an half old. I choosed them unsexed. They haven’t molt yet and I was searching online if there were another way to sex them, so I found the ventral sexing...

    Hi there! I'm new here in the Tarantula hobby.

    Hello, my name is Sean. I have always wanted a tarantula to add to my growing collection of deeply loved critters. Currently, I have 2 bearded dragons and a dog after having to relinquish my large fish tanks to good homes when I moved. I have recently acquired a Caribena Versicolor from my local...

    Can anyone help sexy my baby? :)

    What do you think the sex is?! - Here’s my roughly 1 year old C. Versicolor! The breeder tells me it’s much easier to sex them based on the molt but I don’t have the recent one! He said if he had to guess he would think female. What do you guys think? - Thank you SO much in advance! This is my...

    GBB possible male

    Hello! I have been attempting to sex my GBB and can't get to their molt easily (deep inside the hide and I don't want to destroy the enclosure and stress them out) I am thinking though, after this last molt that it is male based on the hooks and shape of the pedipals. Does anyone possibly have...

    2.5 in GBB molt

    hello! i've gotten one person saying male, but i'd like a larger sample size. i no longer have the molt with me, so i can't take any new pictures, sadly. here's it with and without the highlight of where i thought i saw the spermathecae.

    Little pink toe!

    Howdy! I should have asked the exotic store we got them from, but would y'all be able to determine the sex on this cutie? Could I also get an age estimate on this forum?

    Is this a female G. Pulchra?

    When I purchased Ungoliant, I specifically asked for a female and was told they were 99.8% confident that this was one. Could anyone confirm? She is currently a little more than 2" diagonally.

    Male? Too early to tell?

    Ceratogyrus darlingi. .5” These are the first baboons I’ve ever owned, so I have little experience with their spermatheca or sexing them properly. The organs seem spaced farther apart so does that mean male? Or would it be too early to tell at this stage?

    3 1/2 G. Pulchra

    3 1/2 pulchra gave me a surprise molt this morning. Any idea on the sex? I am leaning male.

    Is my baby a female?

    Hello, everyone! I went to a reptile expo this morning to look at blue tongue skinks and ended up taking Shelob home with me :) She was an impulse buy (not recommended, obviously), but I have a ton of experience with a million other animals, and I'm very eager to learn everything I can about...

    Not a Tarantula, but can someone sex my juvenile Regius?

    Hi, I’m new here so please forgive me if I’m doing it wrong. I got this beautiful gray Regius at a reptile expo last weekend. My breeder said that its a male, and I usually trust her judgement, but I’m having doubts. What do you think?

    Male or Female?

    Hello! this is my freshly molted brachypelma hamorii sling. is it a male or a female? if anyone can already tell thanks

    L. Parahybana 4.5-5”

    Noob here. From what I’ve researched it looks like a female to me, but that white dot above the epigastric furrow just keeps me from saying that. It looks like dirt, but if it is it’s not on the glass. I don’t like picking the floof up a lot because it’s a bit skittish and too small for me to...

    How old is my Tarantula and is the animal male or female?

    Hey guys. My first post. My first Tarantula. I don't know how to sex or age my Tarantula. I imagine more photos would be required to make this determintaiton, but the spider prefers to burrow. I purchased the spider three days ago.
