The striking difference in color from one molt to the other. Old carapace was laying there just right for a comparison. They really are going through changes in their "teenage years"...
By the time it is ready to molt next, it'll be mostly brown again. My big male Pamphobeteus is like that - ridiculously colorful and vibrant in the weeks following a molt, to almost the color of mud by the end of the molt cycle. It's cool to see the change, though!

I agree! Makes having them more fun. Besides: It's not like I didn't love the way it looked before. Golden carapace and red bootyhair... almost miss it now. ;P
