my tarantula is a hermaphrodite

  1. i have a juvenile "female' pink toe tarantula. she's about 1 or 2 molts away from maturity. when she's sitting on the side of the tank, i look under to see her abdomen, and there appears to be the area labeled as the female reproductive parts. male tarantulas dont have these visible "slits" between the abdomen and the legs. ;)

    but she's got a really small abdomen. and long legs. the other tarantulas ive seen that are female have bigger abdomens. i don't see any hooks on the pedipalps to suggest it was male, but the shape is off.

    tldr; big spider has vagina, but looks like a dude.


    idk. im really high and this is bothering me.:smoking:
     
  2. Cool story.
     
  3. That is not what a hermaphrodite is. You're confusing that with the word "transsexual"
