I think these two are a little over a year...I got them in a trade and I'm hopeing they are female.....

Tracy they look great, looks like you may have a female and a male.

which ones which? Is the one on the left the male?
I wanted female Oh well

Im just guessing but I think the bigger of the two is male but of course Chris would know better than I. They are still the cutest little buggars ever!

happy picture day to us! rofl! i neeeeeed me some of these!!!!!!

They look great Tracy.
Female on the left and male on the right.

Aghhh! ** pulling hair out *** LOL How can you tell . Ive gotta quit the torty lottery I'm not very good at spotting the sexes

Dan said exactly what I thought, female left, male right.

dude i want your male! LOL!

How can you tell the difference? I am dying to know if my yearling is male or female. Can someone (HermanniChris, maybe) do an informational post with photos showing the differences?

UPDATE: I think I figured it out! It is the width of the carapace by the rear legs, right? The wider ones are the males.

My Virgil is a boy after all! How long does it take for these differences to be seen? I have a baby that I named Emma, but she is only about three months old, so I think it will be a while before we can tell if she is a girl or not.
