5/8 inch B. auratum molted this afternoon, and is now ~3/4 inch.

5/8 inch B. albo #4 molted this evening, and is now ~3/4 inch.

7/8 inch P. atrichomatus molted this evening, and is still curled up on its back. Probably over an inch, though.

So I haven’t seen my wife’s OBT in a couple weeks due to pre molt. I was doing my usual water routine for the slings and adding some on their substrate and guess who came out before I went to bed??


You’re darn tooten! My wife’s OBT! Freshly molted and got some sweet orange coloring on his/her butt! Pic is a little fuzzy cause phone camera was stupid and wouldn’t focus that great. Anyways you all can admire this butt with me

Also before molt, she just had dark brown coloring, after the orange is starting to come in.

My P. muticus sling finally molted yesterday. I was waiting for it to do that for about 3 months. It was .75" before and now it's .75" but slightly fuzzier.

Still not my slowest grower. Got a A. chalcodes sling that's .5" and is going on SIX MONTHS in premolt. :mad:

5/8 inch B. emilia #2 molted, and is now ~3/4 inch.

7/8 inch P. auratus molted, and is now 1 and 1/8 inches. It molted in its tube hide, and got stuck with only its head out. I found it before the molt had completely hardened, and with some misting and careful tweezer work, I was able to work the molt off of the abdomen and legs. Whew. Glad I saw that when I did!

8 molts in 5 days...busy week for my crew!

I am 100% spamming this thread but I blame it on the Ts. A. gen moulted last night.. just like with N. tripepii, caught it in the act. Ew.

Well in the last week I've had 4 molts, firstly my O. schioedtei (no chance of a picture) C. dyscolus, H.laticeps, A. geniculata. My other T's all look like they're going into pre-molt, must be that time again, my A. geniculata gained an inch DLS easily. Sorry there are no pictures, I like to leave them in peace especially after such an exhausting process.

They also tend to look pale and skinny. Better to wait until it hardens up and has a meal or two.
That's for sure, I've just checked on my C. dyscolus, and it's in the midst of munching its molt, as you said it's looking pale and skinny, most of my T's tend to do this for instant nourishment I would assume.

Shockingly enough my B.boehmei female molted. I only say it's shocking because she already molted not that long ago. It's kind of got me scratching my head a bit. I'll have to look at her records and see exactly when she molted before this

My female P. sazimai Liara just molted. She's hiding and I don't want to disturb her to measure the new size yet.
