I'm newish to keeping t's and was super excited to see the entire molting process!! I woke up and saw it was webbing the new enclosure up vigorously in one corner. About an HR later it was flipped on it back and I knew it was go time. I tried to get a video on the process, but I didn't want to move it about too much or shine a bright light on it as it was still very new to my home and settling in. So the video quality isn't the greatest. So I didn't share it. But it's was amazing to catch!! And experience. I have also noticed my other sling chroma cyans abdomen is looking different in color so I'm hoping to see this one also molt very soon. This one I purchased from fear not and is so much smaller and very young. So I'm super excited to watch it grow up. My A. Hentzi slings abdomen is now darkening and is large.  Looks like this one is growing well and happy too. I'll attach some pics of them and I was able to save the molt from the chroma cyan. I want to find a good way to attach the milts to a board to keep them as they all grow.</blockquote>
