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!

RE: updated pics of my yearlings
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.
