I am hoping he is just showing his special red colors. What do you guys think? Kinda worried he might be sick or something. I feed carrot's to the Dubia's so maybe its from that?

When I got my first female I was told that she went through a 'pink' phase and for a while she was quite pink. I didn't get her until she was 6 months old and she was her normal green colour when I got her.
 
That looks like a female not a male. A male would have a bigger casque and spurs on it's rear feet. Your supplements should be:

Calcium w/o D3 at every feeding
Calcium w D3 twice a month
Multi vitamin twice a month

You will also need a laying bin in her cage as she is getting to the age where she could start laying eggs.

Not sure on the coloring as I've never owned a female.
 
i think you have a girl.

male casques, even at that age, should be taller and more pointy looking.

can you post a pic of the back feet.

and she/he looks just fine. just darker to absorb heat.
 
im not a expert but the back of the feet kinda have a point to them but i dont really see a spur so it could be female
 
I Purchased him/her from FLchams as a male so im gonna be pissed if it turns out to be a female. If so i hope they have a trade in policy of some sort. :eek:
 
im sure they will get you taken care of just make sure you message them about it so you know for sure.
