[QUOTE="Tnoob, post: 148278, member: 29038"] I don's see any tibial hooks, or a secondary web duct though. I am new, but I thought that was the identifier for males. If this is your final molt you should see those things as well as "boxing gloves" I thought. I could be wrong. What I have seen is breeders sexing a T by taking the molt, soaking it in water and detergent for an hour, and spreading the thorax and laying it flat, and using a closed safety pin, and a a microscope, or magnifying glass to find the "flap" between the first set of book lungs. As far as I can tell this is a female. No, my screen name isn't a joke, it's a factual representation of my applied knowledge, but I think I might be helpful. [/QUOTE]
