Most Ts moult without any problem so don't worry.

The old exo is so tiny (the tweezers are cosmetic ones)

omgosh! so tiny! I think i'm going to keep some of the molts (smallest ones) and sit them down and pour lucite over them.
So I can look back once they are grown.

I keep all mine in delis, one for each T. It's fascinating to tip them out and see how much that T has grown.

so, they keep? I thought they would just disintegrate over time. Didn't realize they could be kept like that
now however....

They are a little fragile when they dry out but just be gentle with them and don't handle too much

They're so tiny still. Glad the little one's molt went well.

Glad that it managed it so quickly ^*^
I live in fear of mine molting lol

Molting turns out fine most of the time. U just hear the horror stories...molting is a good thing, means ur spider is healthy and growing.

My 3 kids are 32-40. Eldest daughter can't even look at them, youngest son just thinks I'm mad but the middle one has 2 Ts of his own and in fact got me interested in them

My family basically ignores the fact that I have 36 tarantulas. They look at them sometimes but I'm quite sure they think I have a screw loose Nephew likes them though.
