Tail looks like it has blue flecks in it.

Yeah, they are also present around the head, would this be enough to confirm either way?

It looks like delicata but seeing as you already had it in your hand it would have been helpful to see a bit more of it

My apologies! I found it indoors and just snapped a quick photo as I was moving it outside. From what I remember the body did not have any markings that would indicate another species.
