[QUOTE="NaJoe, post: 86245, member: 7822"] Hello, I currently have two P. Metallicas named Baba and Nana (forgive my simplistic naming ideas... lol) and one P. Ornata named E.R. (so I can always remember to be SAFE and ALERT). My P. Metallicas are about 1.5 inches to 1.75 and I know it's hard to sex younger ones, but I have read that with Poecilotheria species sometimes it's easier to sex them when they are younger rather than older. Also, I have read that with P. Ornatas you can sex by the color and mine definitely looks like it's a female please correct me if I'm wrong. Below are the pictures of my beautiful babies. Please help me sex them :) 1) P. Metallica [ATTACH=full]18042[/ATTACH] 2) P. Metallica [ATTACH=full]18043[/ATTACH] 3) P. Ornata (Ventral) [ATTACH=full]18044[/ATTACH] (Same) P. Ornata Front View [ATTACH=full]18045[/ATTACH] (Same) P. Ornata Front View(2) [ATTACH=full]18046[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
