Its all happening

[Elaine Ross]

I just got back from taking my dogs for a run in the field (too hot to stay out long) and found my Tiny 0.5cm A. genic has moulted It wasnt even on its back just over an hour ago lol.



It must be the weather, they are all at it lol.

Timing

Chuckle chuckle.
It seems it's the 'in' thing right now!

Tomas

[Elaine Ross]

I agree, it must be the fashionable time to moult lol.

Cut To Commercial......

I agree, it must be the fashionable time to moult lol.

Elaine

And now for a commercial break.......

Do you suffer from sluggishness and temporary immobility?

Are you experiencing loss of appetite?

Have you lost a limb recently?

Is that bald patch getting you down?

Why not try 'MOLTING!'

Back by poplular demand! It's all the rage this summer, Popular with the kids! Everyone's doing it!

From Mattell!


All the best ha ha

Well, I try my best to make folks laugh. Sometimes it works, other times they just cry or throw stuff.
Glad you liked it.

Another one

It looks like they havent finished with the moults yet lol. I got up this morning to find that my 1.5cm A. purpurea has also moulted.

I will try and get pics later as she is still in her web. I cant see how big she is yet either but she has already cleaned house and threw her moult out.

[Nicola Dolby]

Thought I'd add this one for good measure!





One of 14 so far this month!

[Helen Roberts]

There must definately be something in the air because I've had 7 moult on me since the beginning of the month. All successful I may add.

[Elaine Ross]

Nice one Nicola How big is the little guy/gal now? I love those little pink feet. Its those that have me tempted to get one.


Thats excellent Helen. See, I knew it was the weather lol.

Elaine

[Nicola Dolby]

He (or she) is about 6.5 cm now, still only a baby. Whats made me really happy is that I have a tiny A. purpurea and a tiny B. bohemi. They both moulted on monday so they're up and running now.

[Elaine Ross]

If I remember right he/she was around 5 cm when you bought him/her? Its great to see her doing well. Its such a relief when they moult for the first time in your care.

Congrats on your other moults too My little A. purpurea is still stretching out after moulting last niight.

Elaine

[Nicola Dolby]

I know it sounds silly but I worry when they look obviously ready to moult but then take ages over it. After the dramas last week with my H. schmidti she is now ok and has been eating like its going to be banned soon, so I could have a moult soon there. She is one fattened up spider. Mind you my B. baumgarteni is the same, eats normally for a month or two and then binges!

[Elaine Ross]

I'm glad to hear your H. schmidti is doing well now. Hopefully she will be even better once she has moulted.
It isnt silly to worry about them though. I understand that completely especially when they keep you waiting forever and not eating all that time.
