Massive T. Blondi "Zilla" Molt Sequence (Pics & Vids)
Our biggest female T. Blondi molted today. We originally thought she was about 10 3/4" to 11" but her molt measured 10" - which is still a big Blondi! I believe she is 11" or over now - she gained incredible size with this molt! She molted pretty quickly, compared with our other female. She only took about 6 1/2 to 7 hours to complete the entire molt - our other female took 12 hours! She came through it perfectly and seems to be doing very well! I'll get some good post-molt pics of her over the next few days/weeks.
Below is a video of the entire thing - sorry for the quality. Youtube compresses the video and causes some distortion. It's crystal clear on my PC but even downloading some other software didn't help. Hope you guys can view it okay.

Measurement - molt measures right at 10" (I didn't want to stretch it out and possibly damage this perfect molt):
