Who's molted today

[Phil]

Ok so I'm puzzled. I've had my Pterinochilus murinus RCF, Haya, since February this year, it first moulted on 23rd April then again on June 29th and now tonight I have found another fresh moult only 2 weeks later.
Anyone else had one moult so quickly?

2 weeks????.....barely hardened from the last one and probably only had one feed?

Never known that...especially at that size, maybe the spider 'knew' something not right with last one and corrected itself?

Just when you think you know them, they surprise you. Congrats anyway.

Only species I've had molt that fast was D. diamantinensis and I mean the molting was 3-4 weeks apart from previous molt.

Yes, I've had them moult 3-4 weeks apart before but I can honestly say this one made me double check my records and previous posts in this thread.

You make them fatties by feeding them a tremendous amount of food. They have no choice. Hehehe

That's one thing I don't do, in fact I sometimes think I don't feed often enough.

It could be what @Phil stated and the tarantula molted out of an "issue".

It could have been, it's one of those that spends most of its time in its tunnels

My avic avic sling had been spending a few days on the floor. I thought he was on his way out but then noticed that he was webbing all over the floor.
Caught him this morning turning on his back. Have been checking on him all day, watching him molt. Awesome, hopefully tomorrow he will be sorted.
