My avic just molted two days ago and man I gotta share pictures she looks beautiful!! Absolutely gorgeous

I went in to check on her as part of my daily routine.
And she literally made a tube of web at the top to molt in.
I go in right now and she is hanging like drooped from the top.
As I understand after they molt they have to lay flat out and stretch out their limbs otherwise it will heal wrong.
She has her front four legs and back leggs fully enlongated and hanging from the top
Letting gravity do its work and stretch here limbs out
How cool!

Ill post some pics one sec

its hard to see with the photos but the space between her front and back limbs is about 3-4 inches its looks like she in a hamock lol

i couldn't get the angle to show that as it is crazy webbed

Lol she will toss it out eventually if you can't get it. One of my M. balfouri slings finally gave me its molt after hanging out with it in the burrow for about a week.

Ts are not always tidy. Some will push the molt to the side and that's it. Which is fine with an avic, but wasn't fine with my OW Ceratogyrus.
