Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cor" data-source="post: 208434" data-attributes="member: 38203">It seems that a few of my tarantulas decided to synch up and molt at the same time.<img src="https://i.imgur.com/ym59bzo.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Super tiny Pseudhapalopus sp. blue came out with the first bits of blue color.  She had been a dull brown.  She's still very, very small, but she's starting to grow now.<img src="https://i.imgur.com/bRQfGcw.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />My Avicularia avicularia molted.  I had a feeling this one was coming.  She had been running laps around her enclosure and was super active, then suddenly got into her web tube and just hunkered down and did very little.  I was hoping for a molt and not a death.  Thankfully it was the former!<img src="https://i.imgur.com/dJ7cwb6.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />My OBT, also secure in a web tube, ended up molting.  I feared death at first, but then I saw a seperate ball of legs moving around and the molt became more clear.<img src="https://i.imgur.com/Qx3CypX.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />It's hard to see because she's been at the bottom of this enclosure since the first week, but there's definitely a molt and a spider in that little cave.  She's still sealed off in the bottom and refuses to come out, but she's moving around just fine so far, and it's good to see that she was in a premolt.Not a bad day so far!</blockquote>
