AWESOME! so my research was correct? My Méraddyn has V shaped anal scutes-so am I good in thinking he is most likely a boy?

I guess it's a she, it's just since i got her I though she was a he.

If you drew a line on the picture along the outer edge of the anal scutes, other than those little nubs at the end, it is a rather large v like opening. It also looks like the supracaudel is starting to hook in too.
Females tend to have round anal scutes. I have never seen a v shape turn round, but have seen many "round" shaped ones form into a v.
Once again, just my humble opinion, and I am the most humble man I know!
