Finally survived my first molt with "Houdini" my B. smithi sling. Walked in, saw her on her back and had about a split second of terror before realizing I have read about this and know what it is. 20151220_200505.jpg 20151225_190955.jpg 20151225_193427.jpg 20151225_195043.jpg

A diversipes 'runt' sling moulted today (she's still about 3/4" - last moulted in March or April, I think). She seems to moult into a smaller sling each time -- so, um, gonna say 'no size gain'.... again.

E. Pulcherimaklassi molted yesterday while I was gone. I've only had it for a month and it already has hooks.... I kinda wanted to enjoy watching it grow for longer than that...

My (supposed) female Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens is molting right now. The only thing i can do is watching her, drinking Negroni, with Aria Sulla Quarta Corda on.

Just walked into my t room today and found not one, but 2 wonderful surprises.

My P. nigricolor, who just went pre-molt about 2 weeks ago, is on her back, and just starting the process of removing herself from the old skeleton. She was about 5".

Then I notice that my B. albiceps, which NEVER molts and usually fasts for months prior to molting, had molted at some point this morning. She ate a waxworm on new years eve and while fat, had not really shown pre-molt signs. Its about 3" and this may be the fastest molt period its ever had, and I got it at 1/4".

I saw that my N. chromatus molted some time last night and my P. irminia just finished molting while I was taking a nap this afternoon.... It always happens when I'm asleep for some reason.

G. Actaeon sling finally popped, just finished up. Waiting on a couple of other premolts to pop.
