this is an awesome thread idea!!! hopefully it takes off... I was just thinking about posting something along these lines but I don't have pics lol I have to get a new phone soon with a better camera... it is unbelievable how much bigger they are even after just one molt! my B.smithi just molted and it is HUGE compared to its molt!!! as soon as I can get ahold of that molt I will have to take a pic of her next to it hopefully I can get at least one decent pic

I do! Want sure if I had them on my phone or not.

Here's Marley's setup the day he arrived. Can't really see the little guy hiding in there at the bottom of the bark.

Another of him on the bark. I don't think he had molted yet. My son added a Buddha statue but Marley didn't like it.

I didn't take many pics between the molts this summer. We got him as 3/4". He's about 2" in this next one. My son was trying to measure him after his latest molt.
