I just got home from work and my 3/4" Nhandu coloratovillosus was on top of a web hammock. I then watched it turn on its back, and am now getting ready to watch a molt live. I usually miss them because they happen overnight. I can't wait to see how much bigger and how much more color it will get. It already had the light/dark leg banding before the molt. SO EXCITED. :D :D

Its been 2 hours and it has completely removed its self from its old exoskeleton. It is still on its back, but its new legs are starting to move. Very fast molt.
