My A.versicolor sling just popped its carapace :O Gotta say I expected it, based upon the tarantula's behaviour last two weeks or so, just didn't imagine it happening right in front of my eyes :D

Looks like the moult was successful, I know it still has to gain coloration yet afterwards, but so far not even a hind of transiting to adult coloration on the abdomen. I've got the sling for almost a year now.

My A. avicularia must have molted last night, I knew it was coming soon because it's been refusing food and hasn't came out of it's web for awhile now. This is the first molt since I've had it. It's nice and bright with a pretty orange abdomen. Wish I would have caught the molt sooner..the exoskeleton was too dried up for me to sex it.

My B. albo decided to stand up against the wall of her tank, so I was able to compare her new size against the exuvium. She grew quite a bit!

I love when I get to catch them in the act! My G.pulchripes, who is finally big enough to rehouse in a KK, and a GBB sling--

My S. calceatum molted within the last 24 hours. It's about 2" and so awesome looking.

My female GBB molted today and her legs have turned to adult colouration but her abdomen still has faint tiger stripes :)

Found my A metalica with a molt last night. I knew it was coming as it enclosed itself in a web room. Hated to detatch the corner to get it out. Finally got it webbing!
