(2) The abdomen doesn't have those two hard calves.
(3) For adult shrimp with similar body length, the feet of female lobster pincers (lobster pincers) are relatively small.
2. Male crayfish
The male crayfish has the following characteristics:
(1) Male crayfish, the first pair of color at the foot of the shrimp is darker, and the belly of the shrimp is raised.

Is the crayfish male or female
