Who molted today?

[NMTs]

Wouldn't have gotten a sling that size! How fragile/resilient are they? Always worry I would lose one that small through vent holes lol.

I've got some experience with raising up slings of dwarf species, and the thing they all have in common is that they're tiny! It basically behaves like a normal T, just an itty-bitty one...

This little one has been a good eater, but has been burrowed away in premolt for a couple weeks now. I just make sure to get a drop or 2 of water to drain down into the burrow so it can drink every few days - you have to be careful not to let them get dehydrated.

I have it housed in a little 5.5oz condiment cup with push-pin holes for ventilation, so no chance for escape. I have to admit, though, that there have been a few times when I've found a little house spider walking around inside and moved it outside, only to think afterwards that I may have just thrown one of my tiny slings out the door!

My Dolichothele rufoniger molted again this morning. The molt was 1.25" stretched out, and most certainly male.

One day soon it will be more than the little gray sling in a cup...

B boehmei had an upright molt i am guessing by how its old exo is positioned by its water dish.

Imagine a novice keeper coming back when the spood has hidden itself and go "oh no! My T died of thirst!"

My C. Versicolor molted today! I wasn't even expecting it, so it was a nice surprise.

Came back to this tangle of limbs.

0.0.1 Phormictopus sp. "green" molted today. I'm pretty sure it's a male, but need to grab the molt to confirm (as soon as it's done with it, anyway). Should be over 3" DLS now.

That's my little 0.0.1 Pseudhapalopus sp. Colombia molting:

Also, my little Pseudhapalopus sp. Colombia is starting to get a hint of color (just a hint, though) a few days after molting...

Not a spood but still an arachnid
