I currently have 3 Medauroidea Extradentata <-- as identified by someone in this forum. Apparently they're Vietnamese ._.

So I'm just wondering, how can I tell if they are male or female?

I have two of them that look pretty similar, which is just tan with light green legs and then there's this one that enjoys sticking to the branch that I have in there (the other two enjoy sticking on to the glass) and it looks CREEPY o_o It's a much darker brown than the other two, and its legs have like spikes kinda? The leg kinda looks like __^__^___ <-- Wow, that was pretty bad, but its entire body was like ._. Camouflage spotty like brown and the legs were like a dark brown with spikes o_o

HELP PLEASE D: P.S. that one bullies the other two and the other two are bigger T_T

:D

Thanks :D

The colour is pretty variable in a lot of phasmid species :)
I've never kept this species but im sure its a parthenogenetic stock in culture so there arent any males. I could be wrong though as i've never looked up on it.
If I am wrong and thier are males they would be more slender than the females with maybe a slight bump underneath their end of their abdomen.
