80% probability that it's a male. The epigynal plate is too narrow and long (front to back) for most females. I'd be interested in seeing a photo of its pedipalps and front legs.

What's all that stuff on the front of the cage? Condensation? Misting? You may be keeping it way too damp.

I'd say mature male but only because of the abdomen size. If it was a female she would have been starving for quite some time (at least according to my extremely plump seemani MF).
