my Aphonopelma sp. Guatemala molted sometime in the last day or two. The molt measured a little over 5 inches so I expect she is close to 6 now.
It's amazing how much easier it is to sex adult molts compared to slings. I didn't have to look hard at all to find the spermathecae. I'll let her harden up a bit before I take her out for a photo shoot :biggrin:
Today is a good day, my P. regalis molted again - 2nd time since I got it in september, touching 4.5" now But also my Avic 'Guyana' that I got at the same time has been webbed up for quite some time and looking in this morning it was on it's back, this evening I can see a mass of legs, just hope it's gone well as it's hard to see through the webbing.
one of three Euathlus pulcherimaklaasi. The other two are in pre-molt. These sac mates have always molted very close together, unlike sac mates of some other species I have that go off on individual random molting schedules.
I am new to the T world. I bought a immature B. smithi in September, and I noticed Thanksgiving her abdomen was darkening and she refused to eat. As I type she is on her back in her burrow and I'm not sure how long she's been like that as I just got home from work. I am super excited/nervous. Pictures and measurements to come!
