LP dilemma

[Ed Zeppelin]

I'd feed the tarantula something a little on the large side and then lift the hide exactly straight up vertically without tilting it. Then slowly use feeding tongs to get the molt IF it's been there for a long while.

Obviously never feed a newly molted tarantula.

That's how I pull out my L klugi's and my Pamphobeteus sp machala's molts when they're done. I did basically the same thing with my T stirmi as well but used pliers to lift the hide instead of by hand.

I wait about 36 to 48 his before attempting to pull the molt. They are much more nervous so I mine very very slowly.

Thanx. I'll try that approach the next time.
