My B.smithi's (5cm) urticating hair patch suddenly doesn't appear light colored when shined upon but seems black now. Is it what I think it is?

Mildred, A. Versi. Molted over t-day break. 1.2" to 1.5" even more teal but no adult colors yet. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1353893406.852923.jpg

Tried to preserve exuvium, but too mangled. Can they be sexed this early anyways?

I had an L. parahybana sling molt on Saturday and P. cancerides sling molt this morning before work. I'm really anxious to see how much the Haitian gained in size.

My wife's little A. purpurea finally molted, and sure to form gained some adult coloration.(Thanks for the timeline Storm76)

Much to the wife's dismay looks like it's a male. I have 3 purpureas. 1 I got in January, 2 I bought in September. I was hoping the older one was going to be female, and either of the younger(different bloodline) would be the male to pair with. /sigh

Came home to a freshly molted P. irminia. I wonder if she's going to stay out for me too ooh and ahh over her or if she's planning on disappearing into her lair until her next molt XD

My P. pulcher molted a couple hrs ago obviously ;) Just retrieved the molt.

Size of molt: 3.25"
Size of spider now: ~4-4.5" - can't tell yet.

EDIT: Molt was already munched up - and again I can't sex this T by molt... :mad:
