The horrible glare is from the plastic critter keeper lid, this is the best I could get without disturbing her. I adjusted gamma brightness, and contrast to make her pop out a bit more.
I'd say she's 4+ inches in leg span now. It was cool to watch the whole process. She's lost some weight, must have devoted all that energy into making her legs, chelicerae, and carapace bigger! She's half the length of the keeper now. Time to upgrade! Does anyone know of any good sites that sell nicely priced display enclosures?
Congrats. That's awesome you got to see her flip and all. Ive only seen my L.parahybana through the whole process once over the years. I've always caught em on they're back or half way through the molt every other time. They loose a lot of water weight in the process that's why they look so much thinner. After shes hydrated and a gew good meals, she'll fatten back up.
