Yesterday I cam home to my A. Geniculata sling looking very dark & it had made a molt mat. Within minutes of me noticing, it had turned on its side to begin molting. I got really nervous bc the enclosure was drier than I wanted it to be. It doesn't burrow so I've been wanting to rehouse it from the T. Cribs sling enclosure into the 4inch cube to give it some space. I will after the molt. 20221012_123110.jpg 20221012_123214.jpg 20221012_123331.jpg 20221012_130407.jpg 20221012_130440.jpg

Younger of my two female C versicolors molted last night after webbing up behind the good ol humidity gauge (Don't worry, I know chasing humidity % is bs lol, it's just inexperienced me didn't). She didn't molt for a whole year and 3 months, maybe this has something to do with her dropping a phantom eggsac?

My GBB molted yesterday! 2nd time since I got the sling and the first time in 60 days. This time it really sealed itself off in a cocoon. The first time was a hammock type molt mat and this one looked similar but was much heavier and completely surrounded it. My D. Pentaloris molted for the first time since I bought that I am aware. This puts it well above 3”dls. I honestly didn’t know it had molted and doesn’t look a bit different. It never had anything that I would have considered a definitive premolt. Once again my Ts are molting in pairs. There must me minute changes in temperature, humidity, barometric pressure or cycle of the moon,lol, that spiders sense that we are non the wiser to. I didnt notice a molt until I had dropped a cricket that it ate, and it ate a week before to the day. Had me worried I may have inadvertently done something to hurt the T. I’m usually very observant of my Ts and at least take a second to look in on all of them basically everyday. Problem with the critter keepers is that sometimes things around the very perimeter of the enclosure can get missed because of the black plastic vent holes around the lid. Crossing my fingers I didn’t hurt my pet.

Molts today!

0.1 Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens (Sprite) molted this morning. The molt was 3" DLS. Those colors are already popping!

Also, 0.1 Hapalopus sp. Colombia large (the pumpkin patch spider, Jacqueline). This molt measured 2' exactly.

The last one didn't molt in my possession, but it's worth noting. I picked up a Psalmopoeus pulcher from the store this afternoon, and it must have molted recently because the exuvia was still in the cup and the manager of the store was surprised to see it. When I got home I measured the molt at 2.5" DLS, and confirmed it's a female - and I haven't even seen the actual T yet because it's hidden in it's burrow! Wasn't sure how recently she'd molted so I didn't want to go digging her out.

I'm pretty sure that my Euthycaelus colonica molted, too, but that one hasn't left its burrow in 4 months and I can't get a good look.

Two molts in the last couple days:

0.0.1 Ybyrapora diversipes sling molted yesterday (molt measured 1.5", wasn't able to sex it, though)

1.0(? - suspect) Phormingochilus everetti molted within the past 4 days, give or take. I still haven't seen anything but it's front legs sticking out, but it tossed the molt, which measured 3" DLS exactly. I've been under the assumption this one is male, but I saw something interesting on the molt that has me second guessing. I'll see what it looks like next molt, I guess. No pics.

My T albo molted about 3 days ago. Hopefully this pushes it past 3.5 dls. Is it strange that my 1 3/4 GBB and my t albo’s space between molts are running very similar like 70ish days
