I know there was afew people keeping track of my juvenile t stirmi in pre molt. For thoses who were but didnt see the update on the thread, it finally molted. Anyway i managed to unfold the molt as best i could, it wasnt in the best condition. Im not 100% but i think its female. What does everyone else think?

That was the best i could do, it was chewed up but i managed to unfold that was left. The circled area is between where the top book lungs are. You can see from the pic but there is a flap inbetween.

The left book lung on the pic was pulled apart thats why its not visable, ive recircled the "flap" that i saw, it was better visable when i put a pin in it and lifted it but i couldnt get a pic as i needed 2 hands to do that and i was on my own so no one could take a pic for me lol.

I was going to re moisten the molt and try a better photo but the abdomen has dried worse than it was was when i first pulled it out of the enclosure [emoji20] maybe ill just have to wait for the next one and re sex it.

Oh I understand. You don't have to disturb it. I wouldn't want to do that. If you ever see it on the side of the terrarium (sometimes they climb), try to get a shot and I can help you out.
