Little tiny ass A. sp blue velvet, Had it since May this year (1st instar). Molted 5 times and still is under 2 inches. I must have the runt cuz it just got its pink toes.
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.
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.
