L Para Sex?

[Jane Mitchell]

Hello everyone

I'm not too sure if it's because we've finally got the temp and humidity right but our L Para has suddenly started doing death-defying acrobatics around the tank and webbing absolutely everywhere. OK, so he worries me stupid every time he looks like he might fall but the advantage is that we've been able to take a photo of his underside. We've always know it as a 'he' but we're hoping that with the attached photo, you experts might be able to tell us if we have a Michael or Michaela!

Thanks in advance
Jane (another new BTS member!)

Welcome, OK well ventral sexing is difficult at the best of times, but that image doesn't really give a good view. Have you got a skin, if so try posting a pick of the inside of the abdomen between the book lungs.

Then most well be able to tell you either way then for definite. As this is more reliable way of sexing.
Cheers
