u know wat, i'll wait a few days until it eats to retry

if i was more confident i'd bet u $$ on it but i dont like gambling when the odds r stacked against me :whistling:

it would be easier to sex them in a group shot(up close) to see the difference in comparison to one another, photos can be misleading sometimes.

Really? I see a female, her green stripe will show soon or on the next molt.

If you don't believe me get a mag and look close at the tip for the v-notch...

Why is there always that 1 mantis that's hard to sex? :lol:
