My P. irminia molted a couple days ago, nice light orange chevrons on the abdomen, looks 'bitchin!, now it's a "huge" sling!

BUT the COOLEST
, today my GBB molted and FINALLY has its FULL adult colors, The visible tiger striping on the abdomen has now been reduced to the burnt orange, and the blue has increased in color..Damn it's Gorgeous. I THINK it's a female, but not totally sure, I posted a molt pic of it in the sexing gallery. Here > http://www.arachnoboards.com/ab/gallery/showimage.php?i=33387&catid=favorites

Brachypelma vagans moulted yesterday, now 6cm. Waiting for its brother/sister to catch up to the same size.

Feel like I'm clogging up this thread with molts, but my A. versicolor molted today too!

My A. geniculata sling moulted today--don't have a size estimate but estimating 0.25-.50 inch prior and now .75 inch to 1 inch DLS.
Gotta transfer the little bugger in two days once it's hardened up as it's outgrown it's vial.

Still waiting on my B. albiceps sling and hoping this time there will be some noticeable growth.

My baby 1/3" L. Parabyana sling is in the process of molting. Before I know it I'll be posting again in 2 years, but instead I'll be saying, "My 5" L. Para is molting"! Lmao.

My P.irminia girl may or may not have molted overnight. Vaguely saw her maybe upside down on the ceiling in her half-burrow lair (yeah, she's somewhat errestrial) yesterday, it's really hard to see in there, and today I see there something that may or may not be exuvium.

Okay, definitely seeing an exuvium now.

B. vagans moulted today, so it's hopefully catching up to its sibling in terms of size.

Versicolor is molting. Looks like it's almost done, so I'm going to assume everything went okay.

They grow fast as hell don't they?! I'm going to have to rehouse mine soon.

Versicolor made it out alright!

My first tarantula molt ever happened today. It was one of the most exciting and scary days of my life. I woke up this morning to a big web mat in my G. Rosea terrarium with her on her side. She layed there for 4 hours before starting her molt. That freaked my out a bit but I stayed calm and let her do her thing. The molt took almost two hours. After she curled up which worried me but I still left her alone. 30 minutes later she is up on her feet looking really pretty. She almost has a green tint to her fresh exo. My little girl is now a woman, and is spanning over just over 5 inches long. Iwas able to sex her and confirmed she's a girl and couldn't be happier. I feel a little less like a newbie to tarantulas now after experiencing my first molt. I've always been a scorpion guy but now I'm addicted to t's. Anyway such a happy day today. Will be posting pics of her within the next few days.
