Yeah I can't tell since I can't see the back foot.. Let the baby settle in and get used to the cage. It will not hurt not having a for sure gender right now. Just make sure basking is no hotter then 80.
 
I removed everything you guys told me to remove, I added more vines in so he had more room to climb. I purchased herptivite multivitamin withough d3 and have been using it. Also put on an actual reptile uvb light. All in all I think Karma is doing much better. He is currently hunting the 13 crickets i put in there.

Looks much better. And that is a baby girl. In the first image you see the full back of her foot. No tarsal spur at all. 99% sure you have a female. :)
 
So then I will need to get a lay bin. Alright. Ill figure something out.
Yes... In her adult cage she will need a permanent lay bin. I would upgrade her out of this cage into a 2x2x4. Here is some extra info on female care and lay bins.


As she matures you will have to start cutting back her food. By about 6 months she should be getting about 5-8 small feeders each day. At about 7 months you want to slowly reduce by cutting down feeders so that she is on a feeding schedule of 3 days a week with 3-4 feeders. You want them to be on this schedule by the time they are 10 months old.


You will not want basking to be over 80 for her. Very important for females because as she ages she needs this temp no higher at basking to help control the amount of eggs she produces.
