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 :D get it but i do prefer if people just say M or F :roll:

I've also been wondering about this. Thanks.

 
i couldnt remember which came first, male or female, thanks for clearing it up.

 
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:
