[QUOTE="Ranitomeya, post: 302816, member: 6796"] If they are indeed L2, sexing by the abdomen is not yet reliable. If they are L3, you can check if they are female by checking for the presence of a cleft in the subgenital plate, or the last large segment on the underside of the abdomen. They do not differ in behavior by sex until they are adults, so that is not any indicator of what you have. Sometimes they're not hungry or they are feeling intimidated by something you did or by the prey and respond to approaching prey by running. [/QUOTE]
