L. mactans molt...

[asher8282]

so i was jus sitting around when i noticed my widow was hanging in an odd position, i thought, she looks like shes about to molt and not 5 seconds later i see her carapace separating away.. and within 10 mins had all her legs pulled out! ...pretty cool stuff; i'd never gotten to see one start to finish like that..

yeah, it's always neat to watch. you can tell when they are about to molt too as they'll hang in a different position. it's quick too! they seem to just pop right out!
