First time I see her molting

[De Bourbon]

Hi friends,
This Lasiodora didn't want to eat for some weeks and I predict it was going to molt. But I didn't expected this could happen that fast. Until afternoon she was quiet but late at night, suddenly it happened. It's the first time I see it. For me it was beautiful, surprisingly and somehow scareful. I just want to share with you.

Beautiful!

I got to watch my pulchra sling molt a couple weeks ago. You can always post molt pictures in this thread:

Who molted today?

Doing morning checks now I have 5 minutes to (half term 🙄) and Mameha my Grammostola pulchripes has moulted I can't get the moult or a pic of her as she is deep in her burrow and using her moult as a temporary door 😆 If she had only turned it the other way, lol!

Always magical to see! I've been keeping 3 years now and it still takes my breath away when I get to watch them during the process.

Absolutely. That feeling, when I first saw her upside down laying on the silk mat. Yes it's amazing!

I become a like a kid who heard Santa in the chimney, yelling to my daughter, "It's happening, it's happening!"

Beautiful spider!

I got my first spider a bit ago and i watched it molt but it did not look as good and it really scared me because the first time it molted it was on the glass in the enclosure. It was in its web and it abdomen was shriveled up and showing a hunched position... at least I thought. So I sprayed the web and that was really bad becouse if you detuirb a spider while molting it can kill it! but luckily it was fine.
