Last Saturday at 11pm I finally caught my orphnaecus sp. Cebu molting and she did it right against her lid!!! Got the whole thing on vid. She's a dwarf species and right at her max size. I'm hunting for her final enclosure 🤗 also idk if shes a girl, was hoping to figure it out w this molt but her abdomen was nowhere to be found lol

for the past couple days now, I was certain that my B. smithii was in pre-molt due to her dark black skin on her butt. Then I went to give her some extra water today and she angrily kicked a ton of hairs and revealed that it was just her hairs I was looking at, as her new bald patch is pale beige as usual. I could have sworn she was already bald on her butt...

My female Grammostola actaeon finally molted! It’s been about a year and 3months since she last molted. Very excited to see her all fresh and such. IMG_6611.jpeg

Versicolor had a molt and was curled up when I found it. I thought it was dehydrated and dying.

I gave it water drops and it attacked the droplets and drank them. Guess it wasn't dying.

My massive A avic M6 molted today. If she pulls through the post molt successfully she will be close to 7”. She’s really old though.

Pretty sure D sp panama molted in the recent past. She’s been staying in her hide for the better part of a month now. While not really looking bigger, she def looks brighter (though that’s hard to see in the dark, crappy pic) and shining the light into her hovel, her butt looks fluffier and possibly smaller (hard to gauge that small in a dark space). She also pounced on a cricket last night (without her abdomen leaving her hide, lol)

0.0.1 Pterinochilus murinus (Mikumi) and 0.0.1 Ornithinoctoninae sp. Hana molted within the last 2 days. No pics, they're scaredy cats.

My pretty boy August (hamorii) molted. Was not expecting those colors! Since I've had him, he's only been a faint orange/red color.
I covered his corner of the enclosure back up once I peeked.

First time hearing about these and wow, I'm in love! I adore dwarf species. How large do they get?

My G rosea -- last molt was April 2014, so I figure she must be ancient. She hasn't eaten in two years. Glad she survived it. Last looked in on her 2 days ago -- so she moulted some time within last 48 hours.
