Have any of them molted yet. You bought them about the same time I did the one I have looks to be in pre-molt right now. :D

Nobody in getting darker skin yet but they are patchy. They are still really eager to eat despite being ping pong ball butts. I dont know if they are patchy because they are nearing a molt or because there is so much more skin showing between the abdomens. :} If I can ever figure out how to post a picture I will show them off a bit. It can't be that hard but I have not got it to work yet.

Mine is ready

I have a 2" plus B. Boehmei (bay-me according to pronounciation guide).
This one is ready to pop any day now. Mine seems to wait at least 2
weeks after refusing food before it molts. Is this typical for Boehmei?

They can be patchy without nearing a molt if they are distrubed enough. If the bald skin of the abdomen turns black then it is nearing a molt.

New 4" B.boehmei (+ molt pics)

A pic of my new B.boehmei, I think its in premolt. At 4" showing relatively good colour. Loud hisser too! Being in premolt, all she did was hiss loudly at the superworm I gave her/him.....hope to sex it as a female when it molts

I thought that her legspan was 4" but it turns out that the exuvium has a legspan of over 5". I cant measure her yet because I'm waiting for her to recover.
