I love the black spots on the belly! I'd say female, the tail tapers right after the vent...

I'm going female too. Looking like a clean-sweep for it being a girl so far.

Thanks for the welcomes and knowledge! I'm in Denver-ish Colorado and I have only found Radix before around our neighborhood. When I saw this gal I liked her colors. I will get a better pic of her unders tomorrow I think. She ate her first meal with me yesterday and I don't wanna disturb her too soon.
