Got three today, all of them rather unexpected.

Poecilotheria formosa. This one took down a cricket the other day without hesitation. Today, I come home to a fresh molt. There's a nice and noticeable size difference too.

None of my Avicularias are voracious eaters. They just kind of hang out in the web tubes and don't do much beyond that. Crickets go in, then disappear at some point. They continue to live, despite feeling like I'm a strong gust of wind away from finding them all passed away. This one, however, is very freshly molted. It's still very, very shiny. It almost looks like a large, shiny black widow at the moment, only slightly less spindly.

If the molt wasn't in the enclosure, I wouldn't know anything changed with my Grammostola pulchripes. It looks no larger than before. In fact, it kind of looks smaller. Maybe after a day or two it'll look more substantial, but I'm having a hard time believing the molt is from this specific spider. He could have hijacked another molt while I wasn't looking. You're not fooling me, buster.

Pulled this molt out of my Harpactira pulchripes enclosure and very briefly caught a look at its new, steely blue legs. I wish it would come out for a better shot because it looked amazing. That's also two molts from this one in about two months. Awesome growth so far!

This G. pulchra molt was a bit of a surprise. It's been acting normally and moving around without any signs of molting.

The minute this one stopped destroying crickets with extreme prejudice, I figured a molt was about to happen. It took about two days. I can't wait until it's ready to feed again. Watching this one pounce crickets is a real treat.

Poecilotheria regalis just added a good amount of size this molt.

Our juvenile Grammostola iheringi molted last night & on Monday night it was our juvi Versicolor. So the weather must be warming up.

OBT shed last night.

I saw it upside down and misted in cage. They don't seem to need much water.
