Abel is a boy, and sounds like he's got all his fingers and toes this time (or at least legs and pedipalps). Congrats!

Hopefully she'll toss out the molt so I can confirm it's a girl - I'm about 95% sure from examining the ventral side.
There are several pending, including A. juruensis, H. maculata, H. baviana, T. pruriens, C. cyaneus, Y. diversipes, and X. immanis. Whoa - and I think I left a few out...
Here are a couple pics of Saturn, my freshly molted Ceratogyrus darlingi. She's about 2.5" DLS, and her little horn is becoming more prominent.C. darlingi, Saturn, just molted. Still on it's back in the underworld (not a great pic, I know)...

Gorgeous spider! Nice photos! Getting there in the realm of "big"! 6,5 is impressive!How did I forget to post a genic pic. I am slacking!
Today (a week ago actually) was a good day, a genic moult pic day
Moult measured at 6.5 inches DLS.

Just for fun (see bottom pic) I also compared her to a 5 year old moult from my big girl..the moult on the Left was my big girl Genie, the 3rd from last moult* before she passed amd the one on the right is the 6.5 inch moult from this "little" girl ha ha
*the last 2 moults were mounted in a box frame.
