They are absolutely stunning. I'm fond of all the Harpactira, and aim to keep each species if I can. I still have a ways to go, but it's good to have goals! Lol

No pics, but my adult female C. versicolor molted yesterday and my unsexed sling Cyriopagopus sp. Sumatran tiger molted this morning. Looking forward to seeing both of them!

I have a lot of tarantulas in premolt right now, but I had a few molt recently, three of which I really want to see in fresh new clothes. I'm hoping I can get a good glimpse of them all soon (or hopefully good pictures). Those specific three are a mature female Cyriopagopus sp Sumatran Tiger, juvenile female Haplopelma sp Bach Ma, and a mature female Aphonopelma sp Dragoons.

I'm really excited to see the A. sp Dragoons freshly molted. I mean, this was her in her OLD clothes less than two months ago:

Do these guys get darker or lighter towards a molt? Mine is around 4.5” but she’s a VERY dark brown and went off food around a month ago.

 

[CrazyOrnithoctonineGuy]

Well, a molt that I've awaited for months happened:



That's from Anihan, the current queen of my collection (0.1 Ornithoctoninae sp. "Haribon"). I suspect she actually molted some time ago and only decided to throw out her molt now, as she's been reclusive for a while but has shown herself at one of the two entrances to her hide for the past three nights, and because when I saw her last night her legs were very dark indicating that she's colored up further after her molt.

Thankfully, the abdomen's reasonably intact (this is the most intact abdomen I've gotten from any of my Ts' molts) and not that tightly crumpled, so time to see if she's really a she (I'm 99% sure she is but to be safe)....

Edit: FEMALE CONFIRMED!!

And yes, this means that my biggest and smallest Ts both threw out their newly shed molts on the same day.

yes they do, older females are basically black fresh after the molt
