**EMERGENCY!! Upright Molt**

[PapaRoacher]

Those are some pretty wicked pictures, I've never actually seen un upright molt... Pretty cool

My favorite part of a molt, is where the T is laying on it's back, and flaring all of it's claws, it looks like they're grasping with little fingers, adorable

It probably says that because the NW species still has urticating hairs on the discarded exuvium which can get on your skin.

Lyle: AWESOME molting sequence pics! Thanks so much for sharing!

Oops, not what I mean..Sry for being unclear. What I meant was that the leftover skin on the T can be harmfull to the T for some reason. And I wonder why that is?

Bump....

For the New T owners that may incounter this situation.

Cheers,

Lyle

Yes nothing to worry about. My full grown adult female G. grossa did that about a week ago. Had a big roll-over down the ramp she created earlier on without the silken mat. But everything's still fine and I will resume feeding her after a few more days. Nice one though Lyle!
