Who molted today?

[MotherofDragons]

Something in the water over here. I had FOUR molt yesterday. C. Versicolor, L. Parahybana, T. vagans, and A. geniculata. I’m stoked for the milestone of my versi molting and she is about 1.5” now, so exciting!! More exciting though was watching the geniculata make a molt mat in the open and getting to watch the entire molt process. But it got BETTER, this morning she (bad luck to call them he!) is sporting adult colors.

That’s it, I’m done. I’m addicted.

Nothing like a freshly molted genic!!

Got a pic? That's a nice species. Matter of fact I almost ordered one not long ago, but didn't

At least I have a cambridgei. Maybe a pulcher one day. Overall, do you find the behaviors pretty similar? I've read that pulchers can be bit more high strung. Obviously, I realize it depends on the individual, but just curious how you'd compare the two.

Oh my GOSH they're stunning!! So floofy. I can't get enough of these guys.

Ooooh the cambridgei patterns are gorgeous too. I have a cambridgei, the two pulchers, and an irminia. My experience is that the pulchers are just slightly less highstrung than my cambridgei, also less reclusive than the irminia and cambridgei. I have a juvenile reduncus on the way, I can't wait to compare them to that one too.

Nice, my E. cyanognathus did the same, it surprised me with this lovely exuviae



i didnt even notice it was in premolt

 

[MotherofDragons]

I cannot even begin to explain how excited I am about this G. Pulchra. Been trying not to stare at her the last two days when I noticed she was getting very dark, because I know they can be in premolt forever. Checked today and she has molted (within only a month of having her) and is now 1.5”+ and BLACK!!! Hopefully it’s female.
