Summer is coming, it's molting season!

0.1.0 Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens molted last friday.

0.1.0 Acanthoscurria geniculata and 0.1.0 Harpactira pulchripes molted today.

Crazy...my first three tarantulas molted within five days of one another, with two molting on the same day. Nice surprise after a busy day. Love summer! :singing:

Also, 0.1.0 Lasiodorides polycuspulatus molted today.

Pics coming soon...
Pics, or it didn’t happen… ;-)

My P. metallica juvenile, the last of my 0.0.3 Taksinus bambus slings, one of my Omothymus schioedtei slings, and the larger of my two Phormingochilus everetti slings (now a juvenile) have all molted in the past few days. There have been so many molts that I've actually lost track...

Baby my birthday brachypelma baumgarteni moulted, first moult with me and 2 n a quarter inches on the moult (definitely bigger then the 1/4inch the seller said she was) and to top it off I am pretty sure she's a she even if she did bite right between the spermatheca 🥰 so excited to have a female baumgarteni again 😆 20230603_061650.jpg 20230603_055146.jpg 20230603_055133.jpg
Not the best pics but i can guarantee more will follow, and don't worry I waited till she moved to get the moult last thing I would ever want to do it disturb my Baby, must admit though watched her like a hawk till she did, was excited for this moult. N can I just mention the irony that Baby chose to moult in a corner 🤣🤣🤣

One of my Poecilotheria sp. 'Lowland' slings has recently molted, as I've just found the molt in the water dish! I'll see if I can sex it tomorrow. The other sling has webbed itself up in its cork tube, so hopefully that will molt soon too.

The last of my trio of Ornithoctoninae sp. Hana slings is molting right now. They're all still tiny, but very cute and they eat like champs.

I've also posted this in the appropriate forum, but I really hope that this is spermathecae I can see!

The "multiple molts per day" insanity continues:



My Chilobrachys sp. "Electric Blue" sling and the larger of my Phormingochilus arboricola slings have also molted today, but those are impossible to photograph due to all the webbing.
