Three of my seven are females...I think possibly some crabs don't come out far enough to bee seen and then mistaken for males? I have done that before. Itis easy to tell for me as long as the crab is willing to stretch far enough out...like mine do =) I would imagine pics would be hard to get though... but it doens't hurt to try!
