denoting gender

[mrblue]

ive tried searching, and i know its a simple question and i used to know the answer but: which way round is male and female when denoting gender? like when you see 2.4, is this 2 females or two males? thanks

That's one of those things that I can never remember. :shock: Sorry.

Why can't they just write M or F?

1.0.0 ---------- 1 male

0.1.0 ---------- 1 female

0.0.1 ---------- 1 unown s*x

So 2.4.1 means 2 males, 4 females and 1 unsxed get it but i do prefer if people just say M or F :roll:

What's SPAM?

 

[MikhailsDinos]

Reptile breeders use this all the time.

??? Is SPAM a type of censor? Like B ritney becomes "britney"

 

[Asa]

Yes SPAM is a filter.

Thanks for clarifying, I see that getting screwed up all the time in breeding places.

 

[OGIGA]

Maybe he's saying "u n s e x e d nymphs"

 

[Ben.M]

Yup, thats what i wrote

 

[asdsdf]

You only need to put one space in the word. uns exed. B ritney :wink:

It is hard for me to keep track of how many males and females in a group, this denotation is wildly use for reptile but for invertebrates that produces hundreds and difficult to s.ex during early stage it becomes complicated. I am quite bad at s.exing mantis myself, after 3 or 4 moults, i would probably still use ?,?,250 for a batch of Hierodula Membranacea :lol:
