That's what I call 'premoult'! :rofl:

B. albo (Nicaragua) sling

Edit:

And it moulted only a couple of hours later:

Tormund (B hamorii) and Bean (H sp chilensis). Tormund guards that water cap off and on. Hubby says it's like her cat bed. Bean likes that tunnel. He is the only one who comes out to see what's up when his enclosure is opened. The others run off to the burrow or hide. My brave, teeny baby :)

I've enjoyed your pics of your T. ockerti. What do you think of this species so far? Trying to decide if I want to add it to my wish list ;). Thanks in advance!
So far, it’s one lovely tarantula. I highly recommend to get a sling and raise it from there.

Here's a few slightly better pics of my GBB sling. As you can see they lost a leg when they molted during the transport. Aside from that all's well:) They're by far the feistiest of my current three slings and actually tried attacking the brush I used to chivvy them along to the new enclosure:)
