The tibia segments look pretty pink/orange, so I don't think that's a B. hamorii.

B. klaasi
, B. baumgarteni, B. boehmei all seem possible at this point.
Yes, thought it looked strange and unlike the hamorii slings I've raised in the past. I'm holding out for klassi. I'll update in a few days when she's hardened a bit and the colors are more true.

My B. hamorii Doris was flipped over when I got up this morning. About 4 hours later she was fully moulted and looking gorgeous! I'll get pics after she's hardened up, she's still in her hide mostly.

While checking water dishes a few minutes ago, I noticed my little LP molted at some point during the day. I could see the molt and a little bit of a leg that still looked very soft. Very excited to see how much bigger it's gotten! Growing like a weed.

Fresh Ceratogyrus marshalli sling! Hard to tell with the focus slightly off, but I'm pretty sure I'm already seeing a little button. :p

That's either an Aphonopelma seemani or an Aphonopelma sp. Guatemala, not Brachypelma albopilosum.

I am late getting to this post but my GBB molted 5/21 and my new C. elegans slings molted last night. I'll have pics soon.

Cyriocosmus sellatus molted - molt was about an inch in dls, I think it measures right about 1.5" now. Tried sexing the molt but it's really hard to make out what I'm looking at - thinking it just might be female. Gotta get a magnifying glass or something for these smaller species.

Also pretty sure my Theraphosinae sp. Yucatan molted. :)

Euathlus SP. Red.

After more than 1.5 year she finaly molted. She's now about 2.5 cm. I can't believe how slow they grow. The eggsac hatched at the end of 2015. I hope they next molt doesn't take as long.

E. cyanognathus joined the molt party today - second molt in my care since February. Has to be over an inch finally.

Interestingly enough, abdomen turned a coppery color this molt. I thought they kept the green abdomen a little longer.

Unfortunately the little bugger won't come out for a photo-op, but it looks like my Pterinochilus murinus BCF (Tete/Mozambique) has finally molted. Now hopefully the rest of the P. murinus entourage will follow suit. :p
