Aquaholic Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Right behind their last pair of legs, males will have two tiny appendages that look like miniature legs. If these are not present, then you have a female. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcloughlin2 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Males have the two small appendages on the last pair of legs, while females have two dots on the third pair of legs (One each side). Still confused see th following link, it has a good diagram showing the difference. http://www.nswaqua.com.au/yabby-info.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
