Here are a few pics of me "flapping the flap" lol

Great shots—this is still a bit confusing to me... top one looks female and the others male— it looks like the same molt but on the bottom three there is a hood on top? Male?

Spermatheca can be different from species to species with tarantulas. It helps if you kinda know what you are looking for. Generally if there's nothing there to play with its a male...lol.
Heres a really good thread on spermatheca. If you scroll down to the highlighted species and click on them you can see really good photos of different spermatheca.

@Enn49 shouldn't this link be pinned in "What sex is my tarantula" vs. General tarantula discussion? Or maybe in both?
