Yesterday I woke up to a freshly molted versicolor sling and after arriving home from the gym later the same day seen my cambridgei had also molted. Second time they've both molted on the same. Kinda cool 😎
Also think my chordatus is in pre molt as she's sealed herself Into her burrow about 2 weeks ago now? Not like I ever see her anyway!

1.0 Xenesthis immanis molted overnight. Look at that size gain! He's getting big - he'll be over 6" DLS now.

Avicularia juruensis M2 sling molted. It's female. :) A. chalcodes (?) named Charlotte (pictured) also molted, only the third time in my care in nearly 9 years of ownership. She's pretty dark after molting. Might not be chalcodes.

0.1 Megaphobema robustum (Natalia) molted overnight. She hasn't come out for pics yet, but I got a few photos anyway...

Her in her burrow flipped over:

Then this morning, wrestling her old exoskeleton:

The molt measured 5.25" DLS:

She ate most of the abdomen, but left the important bit. I knew she was female, but this is her first molt with me so it's good to confirm:

And a bonus pic of my little Neischnocolus sp. Panama, enjoying it's first post-molt meal:

One of my little trio of Brachypelma smithi sac mates, affectionately known as the 3 amigos is moulting as we speak, this one is Bonita, hopefully I will be able to retrieve this moult and be able to tell gender 🤞 suspect male atm . 20230625_082501(0).jpg

More pics will follow once finished I didn't want to bug her by getting to many mid moult.

Technically yesterday morning, but my A. Purpurea sling finally gave me a molt! Been waiting impatiently since it arrived almost 8 weeks ago. 20230624_135939.jpg

Two freshly-molted P. irminia.
Juvi "Spunk" molted a little over a week ago, and is finally venturing out:

Adult female "Irma" likely just molted last night, and is still firmly ensconced in her web fortress with the exuvia:
