    Probing or popping?
    Well all my babies are out finally! It's a small clutch 2 spiders and 2 normals and I popped them as soon as they left the egg. From what I could see they are all females but in case I'm wrong which of the two sexing methods would be best to use I've done both of them but never on a hatching any input would be great thanks for reading my post

    I trust popping over probing. Everything looks the same with hatchlings except smaller

    I do both.
    If I pop and see scent glands or hemipenes than good to go...
    Some don't pop easy for whatever reason and they get the cold shaft!

    My hatchlings are only popped, never probed. I rarely use probes but when I do, it is to double check.
