The green one Though I have absolutely no experience sexing these guys (correctly anyways,) I will say male.

I like the mantid in the back.

[jcal]

Steve based on the marking I would say it is female. I find if the marking connects to form a sort of circle on top then it is female. Not a fool proof system, but we were only wrong on 1 out of nine. Called a male a female.

I would've guessed female based on the strong likeness to Harry's (warpdrive) 'Jane' .
Remarkable species either way. Do males at that age not exhibit the crests, along the back/tail?

Thanks for the feedback Laurie, and Jo. I know I'll know sex, as they get older, but trying to get it right now so I know what to get (other quad keepers) to who later.

I was going to say male from the intensity of the white coloring on the sides. However I have not worked with the species in a long time and if if a current keeper and breeder says female like Laurie then most likely listen to Lauries opinion.

From my experience, the band that runs diagonally is indicative of a male. Females tend to have a "saddle" type marking rather than a full cross body band. Is this the same individual you posted on FB on couple of weeks ago?

For the benefit of the forum, Ive included a few images for reference...

Female

Female

Male
