It's obviously that time of year. My O. diamantinensis surprised me by moulting last night only 7 weeks after it's last one. Hope all goes well.

Hope all goes well there's nothing better looking than freshly molted GBB.

My A.seemanni(blue colour form) gave me a surprise molt on Friday too...

My Lasiodora parahybana is in premolt now, rump is getting nice and dark. He hasn't molted since November. My grammastola pulchripes hasn't molted in 13 months but she is webbing up her enclosure quite a lot not too. She may be big enough to bred after this molt.

Hope all goes well. My GBB sling molted on Friday. I'm now just waiting for the A. versi and the P.Met to molt. The others are still eating and the Rosea, well, is being a Rosea. Can't say when she's going to go, lol.

She's kind of hiding in a web tent. Hopefully I can get a good picture later this week.

Now I'm glad that I bought O. diamantinensis instead of a GBB. Although it has webbed like mad it stays in full view all the time even moults in the open.

Oh no no that's almost sacrilegious the O.diamantinensis is a good webber but its not just all about the webbing,when it comes webbing and colour the GBB has it beat hands down and is a must in any collection.
You really have to get one in your collection Enn....

I can't deny that they are stunning but I'm so glad I bought the O. diamantinensis instead. Now I just have to wait and see how my A. sp Aurora develops.
