No hooks yet!

[Annie3Ponies]

My B. boehmii molted over lunch hour last Friday, so I got a nice fresh exo to look at. No girl parts, for sure. But after the molt he is HUGE. Like, almost as big as my LP, and at least double the size before the molt. But no hooks.

Is this likely the last molt before maturity?

If in fact male I would say yes. How big is your LP - a 10" B. boehmi would be awsome

Oh, well the LP has a body the size of my fist, and relatively short legs. So I'd say the B.b. is about 5-6 inches L1-L4. Its a LOT bigger than I expected, for sure.

Could be mature
. Just look for hooks... May be a bit tricky when looking under the fluff, but if its mature they should be there. Id say a male (if indeed male) should be mature by 5-6" especially when the species doesnt get much larger.
