molt

So my B.hamorii female has been in her back since 3.30pm today (UK) it's now 11.50pm an is still int he same position. My other TS didn't take this long an I'm starting to get anxious. Shes around 3-4 years old an is a fairly big size. I did a time lapse video an you can see her legs moving an...

Hi all, I have been caring for a 20+yr old rose hair at my university for the past couple years-- she is a "class pet" for the invertebrate zoology course. I'm rather fond of her even though she hates me. This past weekend (9-16) she molted as she does every year/every other year at this point...

Disclaimer: I fed her in the second picture a week after she molted for those who may be worried.

Hii, I have a juvenile pamphobeteus sp. Machala who has not been sexed yet. I’ve had her since November of last year and she lives in a 2 gallon- I’m worried because she hasn’t molted in a while, and she’s mainly stationary in her enclosure, I mist it twice a day and she didn’t take the last...

Freshly molted, and the best part is we have a MATURE MALE FOR HER! :D CBCB steindachneri available next july! :D I hereby declare aphonopelma eutylenum to be the "False ebony tarantula" and Steindachneri is now the 'True Ebony Tarantula' I will now be using these common names. ACCEPT IT.

Hello everyone!! Just about a month and a half ago I got my first tarantula! I don’t believe I’m able to sex it yet, so I’ve decided it’s a girl named Morticia. Anyways she’s a pink toed tarantula and has the cutest little pink toes. Everything has seemed to be going well, but recently she...

I think it's a girl.

So I've raised inverts for a while, and it may be a bit nerdy but hey, we collect Tarantulas lol we're in a whole genre of our own right!! Anyways, I really enjoy this kind of situation, but it's not often I run into a good one like this, so I thought it would be fun for those experienced and...

Theraphosa apophysis 4". Looking for confirmation on sex.

Hi guys. I have an adult curly hair that i got from petco around July/August. I went on a 4 day vacation and just got home and she seems to be molting (she hasnt molted with me before), but she isnt moving at all. She is laying on her back under her half log currently. Should i be concerned? Im...

I was wondering what's the longest anyone here has had a molt take for spiderling under 1/2" in size? I ask because while checking on my spiderlings this morning my A. chalcodes who is very tiny was beginning their molt. I didn't disturb them or touch anything, just my normal morning peeking...

My G. PULCHRA just molted and waitingto flieje over! You can see the molt in the background.

I would love to see some of your before and after photos if y'all have any :) I don't have any, as my single sling has not yet molted in my care! :( But I will add my own to this thread when she finally does.

Ceratogyrus darlingi. .5” These are the first baboons I’ve ever owned, so I have little experience with their spermatheca or sexing them properly. The organs seem spaced farther apart so does that mean male? Or would it be too early to tell at this stage?

Remember when I was panicking about Shelob (T. Albo) not eating and webbing up the entrance of her burrow and you guys told me that I had no reason to worry and that she'd be molting soon? Guess what? You were right! Shelob molted on October 23rd and had her very first hornworm last night after...

She has survived her molt. I must now obtain a male

my huge female finally molted and looks amazing

How amazing does he look fresh from a Molt!

So a few days ago i sexed my female A. Versicolor (8,5 cm molt). She had that M shaped spermato flap that makes it pretty clear that it is a female The flap on this B. Smithi (10,4 cm molt) is there but it is not M shaped. Idk why the pictures are where they are, but they went flying for some...

He/she molted like a week ago, and now its on its back again. I'm scared it might be dying. It might be because we changed up the enclosure earlier today cause a superworm decided to burrow in the T's enclosure. Im pretty new to tarantula keeping too so i'm really scared.
