Did a bit of maintenance on the enclosure tonight - putting some bamboo in there.

So took the chance to take a picture, about 5" now, may be just under. This is the one that came off graham. it has shed since we got it so the gammy leg is nearly full size now.
I say it... we thing it's a girl, we thought we could see an epigastric furrow but not 100%, that part of the exuvium was a bit screwed up. will hopefully know better on the next shed.

anyway, here 'she'? is...

Nice piccy, looks like a sub adult male to me, judging on colour alone... females are normally much brighter black and white

Definitely looks like an immature male to me - that folio is a dead giveaway. Still a lovely spider though Smile Got a small communal of them here.
