[QUOTE="infinity, post: 9943, member: 201"] or what i do (far more reliable way) is to place them both on a clear plastic/ glass sheet (or just in a clear plastic box) and look at the pectines - the feathery pair of things about half-way along the underside of the body. The larger ones are males, the smaller are females. (but again with claw size, you need something to compare it to) get a UV light... way more fun to watch them at night if they're glowing green... black bulbs are a little pricy but you can get cheap 5 inch or so LED torches off ebay for about a tenner [/QUOTE]
