My father's Curly hair molted Saturday. Was pretty cool because we went hunting Saturday morning and I was telling him she was due any day to molt. He got to see her pushed out of her old exo and lying on her back. Think she's probably almost full adult size now at about 5".

Ooh man, I think my A. Kwitara is finally molting! Doing some abdomen thrusts and slight movements in the legs. Hasn’t eaten in 30 days. Super stoked.

Looks like the carapace is starting to separate now. I guess sleeping can wait. 😁

edit: Shoot. Played one video game match and missed most of it. 😬. Added pic of the new skins (almost out).

Squirt, my mature female Psalmopoeus cambridgei (from @cold blood) molted tonight. (No pictures yet, because she sealed herself in quite nicely.)
How do you like the Cambridgei? I have two Psalmopoues slings (irmania/victori) and was thinking of adding one to my collection.

Cams are great. They tend to be bolder and less defensive than irminia (especially as they grow), although mine has been shy while in pre-molt.

My irmani has been sweet so far, but not expecting that to last long at all. The victori I expect to be a terror as it gets bigger. I’ve heard great things about cam’s and have been on the fence about getting one. My T’s are all flashy, but something about the cam intrigues me.

Everyone. Everyone molted today. It's Molt-A-Geddon.

I tried to dry my dishes with a towel that somehow had picked up a molt that I had removed from an enclosure, which I did not realize until I looked down and noticed crispy little molt bits all over my kitchen floor.

I am now very itchy and I am concerned about my dishes.

I watched my juvenile G. pulchra lay a moulting mat last night, it took her over two hours. I wanted to see her laying on her back and I realized she was doing that when it was almost over. I was late literally few minutes. If only I had turned my head towards her enclosure a bit earlier... D:
All that's left is to wait! I can't wait to see her fresh paint job!

3 hours later, no change except for her moving her legs once to change position or smth. I've forgotten how stressful it can be.

2nd edit. She finished, still laying on her back but I'm proud of her lol

My G. Pulchra sling is just in the midst of moulting! I’m so excited, it’s her first moult with me. I’ll post pictures soon, and hopefully I can sex her with this moult!

P. Irmania sling molted, woohoo. Went to water and feed and then realized the molt happened. Growing fast.

My big AF A. seemanni is molting right now and I'm deadly worried as always. It's my first adult molting apart from the Cyriocosmus' (which you never see doing it due to sealing themselves in their burrows).
