L.parahybana sling #1 named Drogon molted, around two inches now, and also now a confirmed female!! Sold an adult female LP a few years back and regretted it ever since, glad I got another one. Be awesome if the other 2 unsexed siblings turned out to be girls also.
I woke up to a molted Euathlus sp. red sling!! This is my first T so I'm so excited It went from about 1/2" to 3/4"! Not the best pic, but here it is standing over its molt
I am so excited I can't even tell you! My first Tarantula, and she has been pretty difficult so far. I was getting a bit discouraged. Very aggressive, threat posture, hiding in her hide (lol) and never coming out at all, attacking everything (water, plants, tongs, my breath) so I mostly left her alone as figured she was pre-molt. Has not eaten in the month or so that I have had her.
So last night she molted and is a beautiful deep black with a little bit of gold on her knees. I tried to snap a photo but she quickly ran back into her hide. I will snap some photos tonight. I don't know what species she is, as she doesn't quite look like a Chaco Golden Knee but I only got a quick look before she ran. I am a little upset I did not get to video it. And now I should be able to sex her. Happy days!
P. cambridgei - and I was able to confirm she's a she
I was somewhat nervous because she's from the same seller as my surprise MM Homoeomma sp. blue, who was supposed to be female. Since I hadn't had a molt from her before I very carefully made a hole in her dirt curtain and pulled the molt out and yes, she's female. The molt was already 6" so I guess she's mature now.
