Meludox's T's

[Meludox]

Avicularia velutina sling. Unpackaged him while he was molting and the molt seemed to be stuck. It came off but some legs are deformed. Definitely going to update on this guy's progress.

Io had a bad molt on January 19th, she's missing all of her limbs on the left side but at least she's alive.

 

[Meludox]

My Avicularia velutina and Avicularia versicolor, both suffering from bad molts, ate pre-killed crickets last night! It's their first time eating since their molts and I am so happy. Definitely think my little fighters are going to pull through.

My Grammostola pulchra molted today. Woke up at 11 to find her flipped over, and she finished the process about an hour ago.

She was roughly 3/4" before, and now she is an inch and a half I would say.

Awesome pics! Nothing more exciting than a molt.

It was very exciting! The first molt I've witnessed myself. I can't wait to get some pictures soon of her new armor.

Are you serious? That's fantastic then! Yup, I was just talking with another keeper about the fact that no matter how many you see, they NEVER get old. I still get excited! Congrats!!!

 

[Meludox]

Yup, everyone else has molted in secret or while I was away. But I could never imagine getting tired of it. Definitely one of the best parts about the hobby!

Avicularia velutina sling is thriving and climbing well after the bad molt.

 

[Meludox]

Some pictures I got of my G. pulchra, about 6 days post-molt.

 

[Meludox]

A. velutina has begun taking live food, VERY aggressively.

 

[Meludox]

Aaand my A. geniculata sling molted today.

Her big pre-molt butt beforehand.

Never really see my N.chromatus either, burrowed way down, I have the sling enclosures nestled into styrofoam, I periodically lift them enough to peek at their burrows, the teeny chromatus is alive and well, just hidden away at the very bottom of its enclosure.

Taking photos of my N. chromatus is virtually impossible. He usually does hang around above ground but bolts for his burrow at the slightest disturbance. It is kinda funny though watching him suck prey down into his burrow like a trapdoor.

My 2 were just the same but now they are just over 1" dls they are becoming more visible so be patient

LP sling molted last night.

 

[Meludox]

Five new additions today

Two B. smithi slings

 

[Meludox]

A very teeny Cyclosternum pentalore sling, 1/4" maybe? Gonna need a smaller enclosure.

 

[Meludox]

P. irminia sling. Probably the most defensive/fastest species I will ever own.

 

[Meludox]

And lastly, a freebie B. vagans.

 

[Kymura]
