Houston, We Have a Molt!

FINALLY last night Mustapha came out of his burrow! I thought he might be hungry, but he didn't seem to wantBrazilian black and white tarantula, freshly molted the juicy larva I put in for him.

This morning I woke up to "two" spiders in the container. I saw the molt first, all shriveled up, and my heart kind of sunk. Then I noticed the much paler, fleshier spider beside it! The new Mustapha!

I did have to go in, to fish out the larva, and I wanted to grab the husk. I hope I wasn't too disruptive.
WOW YAY!

Smithy is finally starting to turn down food. Maybe she'll molt soon too! A lot of people on the forums are telling me it's very normal for a smithi to cling to the class. I guess she's all good.

They both are.Mustapha's old skin
