CarbonBasedLifeform Tarantula diary

Caught the P imperator out while I was offering up some cricket drumsticks to the slings



also looks like the GBB is molting already. I figured it would be soon with the web hammock it was building in the corner. I hope being shipped during premolt didn’t stress it out too much.


I think I’ll edit the first post with the dates of all the molts just to keep them all in one place. Maybe a good reference for the future.

I see there are time limits on editing posts, so that idea is out the window lol thought it could have been useful for anyone doing future research on these species to see frequency of molts in one place and get an idea of realistic growth speed. That’s alright, I’ll just keep an excel file for my own reference.

but anyway, the GBB molted successfully. I don’t want to disturb it now but I’ll get some pics of its fresh new coat when it’s had some time to recover. I always love the look of Ts after a fresh molt
