Message: <blockquote data-quote="garrim" data-source="post: 50892" data-attributes="member: 3997">So sorry! hahaI definitely am/will/ I wonder if he's just getting ready to molt perhaps. Here is a pic of him:<img src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/794136/T/Brachypelma%20albopilosum/cropped.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> His abdomen is darker about halfway through the length of it compared to the brown color on the half towards the carapace. That's why I'm assuming he may be in pre-molt. I just got him on Sunday so I'm not sure what he normally looks like or if this is even a deviation/pre-molt coloration in the first place or if that is just how he looks normally.Awesome thread btw!</blockquote>
