Also Sahydroaraneus raja has molted and actually visible at the moment, but I need to rehouse it before taking any photos - The little photosensitive bugger has destroyed its burrow and is now chilling way too close to the top of its tiny 30 ml / 1 oz vial for me to keep the lid open long enough to get a photo :D

Two more of our TTS gimp box molted yesterday. The Aphonopelma seemanni & the Avic Avic. One is male & one female. A third, the M balfouri, from the mystery gimp box of 4 molted earlier last week, but we cannot get to that molt yet.
So All 4 now have all their legs again. We so far know one is male, one female. One molt was damaged & one is yet to be retrieved.

Not a T, but feeding my slings last night & one of my Euscorpius Flavicaudis has doubled in size. :cool::D It is now almost 1 cm long. I cannot see the old skin, not even under black light.

My Omothymus schioedtei, which I have labelled as a Cyriopagopus sp Hati Hati. has just molted. The molt is still wet & not sexable, but it's around 5 -6 cm.

Do I relabel it as a Omothymus or leave it as a Cyriopagopus?

H Chilensis has moulted for the 3rd time this year. I would post pic but it looks like a generic sling and can't be assed to move to take 1.

So it turned out it's not a generic sling anymore but is starting to sport some colouration. Noticed it a while ago but difficult to catch it out to get a pic :)
