Did my tarantula just molt without a trace?

[QUOTE="kormath, post: 73276, member: 4199"] Pictures. What size is he? Slings tend to burrow and molt in the tunnels. Then push the exuvium out with dirt burying it, or tearing it to pieces in the process. I've found legs from one molt scattered around the cage, like it flung them off in all directions instead of slowly pushing the molt off. Now wouldn't that be cool. A self defense mechanism while molting. Legs become javelins, then they have skewered prey to eat after they recover. [/QUOTE]
