Did it reach 2" fast?

Yeah. Pretty fast.
It was just a teensy thing last year.
Probably as small or smaller than yours.

One of the species where one wonders after the moult: how did that fit in there!

My beautiful big girl 'Genie' in her prime. Sadly she passed away this year at over 20 years old

Standing up so tall is my beastly beauty A. geniculata! Always out, always hungry, always ready to entertain, lol.

Acanthoscurria geniculata

Cochise # 2, after a 20+ hour molt
I think she's 7 y.o. now
Raised her from 1/2"
Very calm, and predictable.
Will lazily rub off hairs if annoyed, despite bearing huge fangs.

All Hail!
She’s gorgeous!

All Hail! her highness!
I lost mine that was that size like 7-8 years ago to a wet Molt.

Thank you. She's a beauty. After 20 hours of absolutely no movement, I thought I'd lost her.
Cochise 1 went into molt for 4 days. I knew she had died., so #2 was a nailbiter.
Finally, after almost a full day, she pulled through.
I have to find the photo of #1. Y'all might have seen it several years ago.
These species are real sweethearts.
And then there's my female Hati Hati.
RUN!
