2 moults yesterday. Orinoco, my Dolichothele exilis is still in hiding so no pics.

Hysterocrates sp Hercules, Gao, has also got a new outfit for Christmas but is right in the bottom corner of its container so this was the best photo I could get

My tiniest sling has moulted today, the little Plesiophrictus sp kerala. Pala.

The paper it is on is 3" square and the tweezers are normal cosmetic ones

I think I got it wrong yesterday. Danao has to be the smallest, the Orphnaecus sp cebu small that arrived 5 days ago has moulted.

Same size paper and same tweezers.

This little guy has 3 new regenerated legs and one regenerated pedipalp. I felt really bad because it was my fault he lost his legs. I placed tape on a oversized hole on his enclosure and forgot to cover up the sticky on the inside of the enclosure. When I noticed he was stuck...he freaked out and ripped his legs off trying to get away from me. He molted that night hours after it happened. Would he have molted stuck and freed himself??? I guess I'll never know.
