My Poecilotheria smithi and my Pamphobeteus sp. Machala molted overnight. So I think that clears out all the ones that are definitely in premolt (though my A. metallica has refused feedings the last couple of weeks so she might be). I should be able to retrieve the Pampho's molt later today so I can sex it, but my smithi's molt will probably be pretty inaccessible in its new Fortress of Solitude.
My T. ockerti and one of my D. pentaloris molted overnight. Today, one of my N. tripepii and the other D. pentaloris molted. And my L. klugi sling is molting right now.
When I first got my batch of slings I was updating this constantly, it seemed. Now of course it is much less frequent...
Came home from work to a flipped B. smithi. She was just beginning to pull out around 4 hours later and I had to go to bed. By the time I awoke, the deed was done, of course.
My little 1/4" inch genic molted today. Looks to be doubled in size now! Excited, because i wanted her and my gbb to molt before i go on vacation. Alas, I'm still waiting on the gbb.
Edit: just noticed that you can really see the little spots of webbing she puts down every now and then. Its interesting. When i go to remove prey, theres always a lot of very fine webbing all around it.
C versicolor attempted molting in one of her smallest web tubes. failed and died. shame, raised from 1/2" and had her for a year now. was just about to get her adult colors too.
O sp hatihati molted and is female. #3 B albo molted.
P. sazimai and a huge surprise- .5 A. eutylenum molted with none of the pre molt signs I'm aware of. It ate a B. lateralis just two days before, no darkening, did not expect it to molt any time soon also due to being a slow growing species... It looks way different now, all legs and extremely skittish.
My B. albopilosum sling molted last night from 1" to 1.25" and I have a feeling my GBB sling will also molt within the week since they molted together last time and the GBB pushed aside a roach I threw in which it never does.
After three months in his burrow this little guy finally emerged sporting his new blue outfit! Quite a change from the previous zombie-flesh brown, cameraflash or no.
woke up this morning to see a confirmation that my C. huahini had in fact Molted and I'm pretty sure he's a male. as sad as it is, i believe its now time to invest in a Mature female for when he matures!
