It was a molt fest this weekend while I was gone. My P. regalis molted into a solid 2" and will need rehousing now. My A. diversipes is now 1" 1/4 and my P. pederseni is close to 2" now. We will see how they are after a couple of feedings.

My G. pulchripes molted this morning. I think it is a female (pic in gallery). Measured the exuvium at 5 3/4". Bought as a sling in 2004, she is 7 years old.

My P.metallica juvenile molted and from what I saw through web and glass looked like a girl! That is exciting, will try to get the exoskeleton tomorrow and double check.

My L. parahybana sling molted last night when I left for two hours. I came back and he had started and was upright. Still tiny at about 1".

Another A. burica and my near adult male OBT. The fresh OBT colors just amaze me! Almost a fluorescent orange that shines through his walls of webbing and substrate.

Scary evening to come home to... My yearling T.blondi girl is on her back right now. She had all the signs: Stopped eating about a month ago, closed the burrow enterance a couple weeks ago, came out to have a long pre-molt drink a couple days ago and built her molting mat yesterday. When I left home @ 2pm today, she was upright and when I came back at 6pm she was on her back. I will try to take pictures every hour or so and will put them here sometime later. Her temperature and humidity levels are optimal so she should be OK but you never know...

I don't usually get too excited about molts anymore, but last night when I fed everyone, I saw that my female G. pulchripes finally molted!

I have been waiting on her to molt again for what feels like ages, so I can pair her. Definitely excited about this molt. :)

Oh and my GBB molted yesterday as well, starting to show adult colors.

My juvenile P.regalis molted overnight and threw out the "spare spider" this morning before vanishing back down into its web, guess I'll have to wait to see how much size gain there is.
