P. Metallica wants to know based on visuals if it’s a ‘Burt’ or a ‘Daisy’
Opinions please!

Too young to tell. However, as immature adults there is sexual dimorphism in pokies, so it is easier to tell then. Like Casey, I am inclined to think it is a "Daisy".

Definitely not, it’s about 2.5inches lol


Definitely not a mature male if that's the leg span. It's still only a juvenile. The dorsal stripe has faded a good bit. That usually indicates female. Males tend to keep their dorsal stripe and there is less "white" coloration on the abdomen.
