Young Geoffrey, my little Phlogius crassipes "kutabul" finally moulted a few days ago, I had thought what I could see in his web was a moult not a bolus and I was right. He emerged today and was stretching his new longer, hairier legs and I managed to get one pic which panicked him back into hiding (I'll edit later and add it). I can count how many crickets he has had since getting him because of my log and more importantly count how many until the next moult. I say he, but being only about 1cm before moulting I don't know of course, he's now a whopping 2cm! Maybe even a little more.
