B. Smithi molt

My B. Smithi has refused to eat for a month. Last night her abdomen was peach colored. Today it is black. I think she is going to shed. I am so stoked.

Good luck! With these kind of species that don't molt very often, it is very exiting isn't it!

That's cool! I hope everything goes well when she molts. Let us know when she does

She still aahsn't molted! How log will the abdomen be black before she pops the top?

 

[Atreyuhero4]

could be a long time from like a week to a month

could be months until she molts.

This morning I went into the T room and my P Regalis sling molted! Now if my Smithi would just get with the program I would be good.

Last night my Haplo was acting goofy, this morning she molted! Wow. Still waiting on the Smithi.

 

[Boanerges]

Well at least the others are molting good

Today my Haplo, which was an orangish brown, is now black with some very pronounced stripes on the knees! I truly think it is a Longipes!?

Yes, my Smithi hasn't eaten in about a month. This morning she's on her back, I am so excited, this will be the fourth shed! I'll post some pics.

My Smithi is finally on her back. I have been observing her in the dark via a red light. There has been little movement. It has been about one hour. I am so stressed right now. I feel like a new dad in the waiting room of the maternity ward. I truly hope she survives this molt.

I got a molt finally last night! Awesome. Her color is so beautiful. I stayed up all night and watched her with my red flashlight.

Mine moulted out about the same size last night.

Now I just wish she would eat.
