Woot! Yeah, in my experinence I have noticed that Grammostola spp. tend to have a big increase of size after each molt. Maybe that's why they take so long huh.I removed her exuvia today. She'd moved a little bit, but I didn't notice she was still sitting on part of it. >_< She got spooked a bit and moved, but I got a good look at her.
She's grown by like an inch. I didn't expect her to grow THAT much.![]()
Yeah, there's a definite color difference in that picture. Her leg setae are quite a bit poofier, too.it looks great...amazing what a quick skin change can do huh?
It's like they save it all up or something.Novak said:Woot! Yeah, in my experinence I have noticed that Grammostola spp. tend to have a big increase of size after each molt. Maybe that's why they take so long huh.
I'd say Grammostola aureostriata is the fastest growing of the Grammys, but in general I'd say Grammostola spp. take a few more months as slings and a few more years as adults.Yeah, there's a definite color difference in that picture. Her leg setae are quite a bit poofier, too.
