About 2 months ago I ordered a B. Smithi from my local pet shop. When I picked it up I opened the deli cup and saw a small red knee maybe an inch big happily feeding on a wax worm the store owner had given. After closer inspection I noticed a molt in the deli cup. This Smithi had molted during shipping and was feeding like it never happened.
After owning it a month it molted once again. I posted pictures of before and after. The molt was wonderful the little bald spider molted into a Tarantula finally starting to show color and some leg hair. well a month has passed and I noticed tonight it has molted again. I just missed the act. When I noticed it was happening it was to late. It was on its back still the freshly molted skin laying along side. It almost looks like a tiny bit of the abdomin flap is still hanging on but I am confident once the T rolls over and stands this will fall off. I can't wait to see how much bigger it is after this molt.
6 T's and counting. Only one large enough to to be sexed. Gee they are fun at this age. molt molt molt
