my guess would be that its around 1.5", i may be way off, but thats the size of both of mine.. 1.5-1.75" one of them should be molting sometime within the next couple weeks, the other one i just got, so im not sure.. but ill try to get before and after pics, and if im lucky, maybe some during pics

Freshly molted GBB



It's legs got a lot darker a few days after that picture. It sure was hungry too. I threw in a cricket and it got away a couple times but it kept hunting it down.

Nice looking spider, definitely my favorite color stage for these guys. Starting to get some real irridescence to the legs but holding that bumblebee pattern.
