Sicarius thomisoides molted yesterday, and it almost doubled it’s size (in length). Yes, there were size increases after molt time to time, not by this much honestly. I was really surprised.

What was the length before and after it molted? I’m curious.

Man those guys seem really fun to keep. Burrowing under the sand and all plus they live long for true spoods. Cheers

That, you can easily tell by the old skin that’s left on bark.

Nice pic!!! I was thinking on getting one and I have one doubt, did you ever mist them so them can moult or they moult in a totally dry enviroment?
