suntiger colour change?

[GVM Major]

Hi all my suntiger has just had her first moult since i bought her,she was a dull brownish with her orange markins now she is the vibrant black beauty i expected when i bought her.Was this colour change due to her being in pre-moult when i bought her or are juvies normally the colour she was prior the moult?

It all depends on the age and sex of your Psalmopoeus irminia. Most of the time, Ts have more brighter colors after the molt. You said she/he is a subadult: some color changes can occur between young Ts and adult ones. And I've heard that the males of P irminia have different colors from the females.
