Molt party! All in the same day:

A. avic (MM...named him Velcro.)
L. klugi (definitely female...named her Minerva.)
B. emilia (too tiny to sex)
B. albopilosum #3 (too tiny to sex)

Y diversipes. A variegata. #2 P irminia matured into a monster sized male.

Probably a couple Hysterocrates. They're a bit bigger and skinnier.

#2 B albopilosum. #2 T sp UL molt.

Female t.apophysis molted early this morning. I came home from work yesterday and she was just covered in urticating hairs. She also shed a bunch of hairs at burrow enterance and all the way down the burrow, can clearly see in pictures. Makes me itch just looking at all those hairs. View attachment 258175
I retrieved the molt from my t.apophysis and laid it out on a piece of printer paper, she is almost as big as the paper. She is going to be a massive tarantula.

Marigold, my half inch G. pulchripes molted today! Her first molt since coming into my care. She's a bit bigger, now. :3

Brachypelma hamorii finally flipped for me today after being in heavy premolt for nearly a week.

Went from (roughly) 1" to 2", and to my immense pleasure it appears to be a little female. I've named her Ham :)

1/2" B. cabocla sling, I was feeding today and took down it's enclosure and saw it was just starting to flip. I put it back in a hurry, lol. It's all done now, looks to have doubled in size. Also 1 1/2" L. parahybana sometime yesterday or last night, 2" now.

Harpactira pulchripes #1 is moulting right now. I didn't want to open the lid of the container and possibly disturb it, so no photos. It is on it's back and legs are twitching.

1/2" B. hamorii finally molted this morning after 3 weeks of looking like it was about to pop. Doesn't look any bigger, heavy sigh...

My Psalmopoeus cambridgei juvenile moulted earlier. My Avicularia sp colombia is also on it's back but it's been there about 36hrs or so and it's not looking good

My P. lugardi sling molted but not sure when. It's water dish wicked out into it's burrow and got everything soaking wet. I found the poor little guy out of it's burrow for the first time since I've had it clinging to the top of the enclosure looking very unhappy. I rehoused it into a dry enclosure and found a molt in the old burrow.

Our B. albopilosum molted a week ago today, grew from ~.5" to .75" and our C. versicolor molted today (or maybe yesterday), going from ~.75" to ~1"

Our B albo couldn't get its spinnerets out of the molt, so a minor complication, but I'm hoping it won't be anything major as the rest of its body seemed to make it out fine. Here's hoping :embarrassed:
