Awwww...so cute! Good pix!! :)

I had another molt yesterday. My N. chromatus. Got it at 1/4"...and it's still only just over 1/2". So slow.... Meanwhile my OBT seems to almost double size with every molt! haha (so fun rehousing that one yesterday...ran laps around the bathtub...lol)

Edited to add: Looking at your pix again, it looks like my A. geniculata is about the size of your smallest molt. About 1/2" and just seeing the start of stripes on the legs.

Congrats to your N.Chromatus and OBT... My N.Chromatus first and second molt sizes was almost same as yours, then on their third molt it surprised me and it almost double their size too...

Yeah! Genic is so nice also, even they are slings you can see those stripes already and they don't refuse to eat except near to molt...

Another surprise from my A.Seemanni... It's been long time since he/she didn't show, just burrowed and I was just checking him/her underneath.. Then yesterday, he/she show up... I guess it's a blue form A.Seemanni...

I need now to give them names... and I will start with this fellow... From now on I will call him/her SEB!

Great molt photos, Thivo! Fun to catch it in the act...:)

Thanks PamCz... Yeah! That is why I don't want to miss the chance when I see them molting... I quickly grab my mobile phone and take a shot and video...

Edit to add: yes, the substrate was too wet here...and I rehoused it a couple days after this (gently) into a new, larger, drier enclosure.
