2" long body, both a male and a female when mature are bigger than that. The male not that much bigger which is why probably next molt will know for sure examining the molt and looking for spurs on the legs. Just an FYI- there is some doubt if thats a spur on mine or not. people are saying it could be a trick of light. Dark Den just put out a video of a failed mating between of these. You can see the size difference and the coloration difference.

Male - the fusillae are very apparent. There is a guide if you do a search on this forum. The more you look at, the easier it will get.
